Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History and Antiquities of Roxburghshire and Adjacent Districts, Vol. 2 In presenting to the public the second volume of the History and Antiquities of Roxburghshire, the author, while acknowledging with gratitude the kindness and encouragement with which he has been honoured since the commencement of the work, has to express regret at the long period which has elapsed since the publication of the first volume. The preparation of a work of the kind, requiring scrupulous accuracy and fidelity, is of itself a laborious task; but, when added, as in the present instance, to heavy professional duties, only a few can appreciate the severity of the toil. The work was intended to have been confined to two volumes, but the author had not proceeded far with the present volume when he found it impossible to condense the materials within such limits, and do anything like justice to the subject. He has therefore been induced to extend the work to another volume, and the doing so, he hopes, will meet the approval of the public.
