Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Description of the Shetland Islands: Comprising an Account of Their Scenery, Antiquities, and Superstitions Hibbert´s valuable work on Shetland having become very scarce, and accessible only to a limited few, the more interesting parts of the book, (the geological section being omitted), were reprinted in the "Shetland News" in the course of 1890-01. A very general desire was expressed, when the proposal to reprint the work in the newspaper was announced, that at the same time an opportunity should be afforded to the public of procuring it in book form. Hence the issue of this volume. As it was not intended to reproduce the book in an expensive form, arrangements were not made for including the plates and maps which are given in the original, but as a specimen of the former, one page of the engravings has been reproduced in fac simile; and the music of two native airs has been added. The spelling of the original has been adhered to throughout, and in other respects every effort has been made to reproduce an accurate of the original volume.
