Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sir Walter Scott: The Story of His Life
It is proper that I should here thank my friend Dr. S. A. Alli bone, not only for a great deal of information in the catalogue raisonné of Scott's works (in his great Dictionary of British and American Authors but for his kind counsel. On his sugges tion, I have narrated, more fully than I first intended, my own personal relations with Scott.
Here too, in common justice, I have to state that my own occa sioual lapses of memory have been supplied, and new information copiously given, by The Lands Of Scott, by James F. Hunne well, published since I began this work. It has not surprised me to learn that Mr. Hunnewell's volume, which is the master-key to Sir Walter's writings, and the various localities, home and for eign, which they describe, has already been reprinted in Edin burgh. It literally is a guide-book through Scott's life and works.
