The house of Lindsay, of which the earl of Crawford is the head, traces its descent back to the barons of Crawford who flourished in the 12th century, and has included a number of men who have played leading parts in the history of Scotland.
Lindsay, who was a brother-in-law and ally of the regent Murray, carried Mary to Lochleven castle and obtained her signature to the deed of abdication; he fought against her at Langside, and after Murrays murder he was one of the chiefs of the party which supported the throne of James VI.
The earls of Balcarres are descended from John Lindsay, Lord Menmuir (1552-1598), a younger son of David Lindsay, 9th earl of Crawford.

 Earl of Lindsay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title Earl of Lindsay was created in 1633 in the Peerage of Scotland for John Lindsay, who later inherited the ancient Earldom of Crawford.
The two Earldoms remained united until the death of the twenty-second Earl of Crawford, also sixth Earl of Lindsay, when the earldom of Lindsay passed to David Lindsay, while the earldom of Crawford became dormant because no-one could prove a claim to the title.
(That title was revived when a claim was proven in 1848.) Both David, 7th Earl of Lindsay and his successor Patrick, 8th Earl of Lindsay died without sons, and the disputed claim over the Earldom was resolved by the House of Lords in 1878 in favour of Sir John Trotter Lindsay, Baronet.

 A Voyage to Arcturus by David Lindsay, classic science fiction
They are also often strangely menacing, for Lindsay had a knack for creating a sense of dread using understated language.
Lindsay's fantastic realm is never really convincing - not at all comparable to Tolkien's carefully constructed Middle Earth, for example - but it is so vividly conceived and so fundamentally strange even eighty years later that it nonetheless still has real power.
I suppose the book is commenting on the what the author, David Lindsay, thought was wrong with the world when he wrote the book back in 1920.

 BBC - h2g2 - David Lindsay - A Voyage To Arcturus
Novelist David Lindsay was born in Blackheath, London on the third of March 1876.His father walked out on the family when Lindsay was still young and this meant that despite his literary ambitions the families troubled finances left him unable to afford to attend university.
Indeed Lindsay’s influence is apparent in both of their works.
However this is not the traditional good versus evil type of science-fiction novel at all; rather Lindsay has used the novel and his protagonist's journey to attempt to define the very nature of good and evil themselves.

 David Lindsay:  A Voyage to Arcturus
David Lindsay's classic "science fiction" novel A Voyage to Arcturus firmly belongs to an early age of speculative writing.
The key to reading the book is to enter it with the expectations of reading a philosophical book from another era which uses some of the tropes which eventually found their way into the science fiction genre.
Throughout the novel, Maskull and Lindsay both show little faith in human beings, perhaps due to the novel being written in the aftermath of the Great War.
