The Cruise of the Betsey; Or, A Summer Ramble Among the Fossiliferous Deposits of the Hebrides
Author: Hugh Miller
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Geologists
Languages : en
Pages : 502
Book Description
From 1840 Miller was based in Edinburgh, where he was the founding editor of "The Witness" newspaper. This is his account of his summer breaks from journalism, seeking out fossils around Scotland in all weather conditions. It was written for publication in "The Witness". He often adopts a personal and autobiographical strain in his writing, illuminating observations with anecdotes from his own experiences. His style was influenced by his favourite boyhood authors, 18th-century writers such as Addison and Pope. The preface alludes to the tragic circumstances surrounding Miller's untimely death before the first publication of this work.

The Arms of the Baronial and Police Burghs of Scotland
Author: John Marquess of Bute
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1326479210
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 538
Book Description
In April 1903 The Spectator gave this review of the original: It contains somewhere about three hundred coats-of-arms, or an intimation that no coat-of- arms exists, or, not infrequently, the suggestion of heraldic bearings that would suit the circumstances. The volume does not promise much interest to the reader; but it has more than one would think. There is no little genealogical and historical information in it; there is much that the student of heraldry will prize. The authors, too, now and then indulge in a gentle jest at the errors, heraldic or other, with which they have been brought in contact in the course of their inquiries.
