Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hood in Scotland: Reminiscences of Thomas Hood, Poet and Humorist In respectfully laying the following pages before the public, I venture to express the hope that their imperfections will be regarded with a kindly eye. Throughout, I have been actuated by the thought that many of my fellow-townsmen might feel interested in the fact that the greatest humorist of modern times had resided for a considerable period in "Bonnie Dundee," and would be gratified to know that the shaping of a career so distinguished as Hoods was in a great measure due to the influence of the friendships and associations he there formed. The biographers of the Poet pass lightly over his Scottish connection, and in the "Memorials" collated by his son and daughter the fact is summarized in a few lines. Hood is stated to have lived for a time with his relatives in Dimdee, but who they were, or in what particular part of the town they resided, is not mentioned. These facts were worthy, I thought, of consideration and research. To their elucidation I have therefore devoted considerable time and labour, and, if I have been able to throw some light upon an interesting period of the Poets life, I will feel amply rewarded.
