Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from William Dunbar
The present Life of Dunbar is an attempt to place before the reader in a popular form the facts in the life of one of Scotland's greatest sons, Who has by no means received the attention either his genius or his achievements merited. Being a popular sketch, therefore, in a popular series, I have purposely avoided, as far as possible, the discussion of recondite controversial topics, and the introduction of dry disquisitions on obscure points of diction or on matters which possess an interest merely antiquarian. I have also slightly modernised the archaic spelling of the extracts I have had occasion to quote, so that the general reader might be able to follow without difficulty the sense of the text.
