Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ballads Other Poems In a letter from Elgin in 1868, the subject of this Memoir wrote me: "Your visit to Smith´s grave (Alexander Smith, author of the Life Drama, etc.) was natural and characteristic of you, and whether I publish a book or not I shall expect you to visit my grave also-and what is more, write my elegy." Add to this the irresistible importunity of friends, an intimate and unbroken companionship of over forty years, and my warrant for undertaking to write these introductory pages is stated. There are few episodes in the quiet life of William Freeland for a biography - an elegy was all he himself desired - but a simple record of what he was and what he achieved, of the honourable strenuousness of his career and his generous helpfulness to others, will, I think, tend to strengthen our regard for his memory. Kirkintilloch, for its size, seems to compare favourably with other towns in the matter of its poets. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
