Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memories of Two Cities: Edinburgh and Aberdeen These papers, now published in volume form, appeared originally in the years 1864-1865 as contributions to Macmillan s Magazine, then a new monthly magazine, started by Messrs Macmillan in London, under David Masson´s editorship. It was my father´s wish that they should one day be republished; and for this purpose, towards the end of his life, he occupied himself with their revision. I have now only completed the work of revision begun by himself; and in this I have been ably assisted by Mr W. Forbes Gray, to whom I take this opportunity of expressing my thanks. The photograph of David Masson that appears as frontispiece was taken by two of his granddaughters, the daughters of Professor Orme Masson of Melbourne University. It was taken in the summer of 1906, and represents him at his own writing-table, at the time when he was occupied in the revision of these papers.
