Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Excursions: In Prose and Verse This volume stands to its predecessor, "Furth in Field," in the relation of a second series. It consists of Prose and Verse, mainly on subjects dealing with Scottish Scenery and Character, Scottish Enterprise and Literature, etc.; but including also a Raid into English Fields, and a farther Flight of personal adventure in Southern Norway and Northern Sweden. The pieces which make up the collection originally appeared in the Scotsman, Scots Pictorial, Scots Magazine (then under the management of Dr Story), Chambers´s Journal, Atalanta, Scots Observer (under Henley´s editorship), etc.; and to the editors or proprietors of these periodicals due acknowledgment of the Author´s indebtedness is here gratefully made. The unexpected commendation of "Tammas Wilson," in Mr J. H. Millar´s "Literary History of Scotland," has induced the author to look up and revise that early venture; and now, after an interval of nearly thirty years, it is again presented, but in such a guise as, it is hoped, may make it a little more acceptable than it was before.
