Book Description
Excerpt from A Book of Highland Minstrelsy It is hoped that the brief introductions severally prefixed to the following poems will be found more convenient to the reader than the scattered footnotes which would otherwise have been necessary. They have no pretension to erudition, and, unless where they are the result of personal observation, have been drawn from such authorities as are most readily accessible, and as bear most directly upon the traditions, the sentiments, and the customs of a romantic people. The writer takes this opportunity to thank her Scottish friends for the local information so obligingly communicated, which has proved of material service.
