Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Robert Burns in Stirlingshire Srirlingshire has many connections with literature, but few are of greater interest than that which Exists between it and the National Bard. "Robert Burns in Stirlingshire" is an attempt to gather together the various associations of the county with the poet. In his tours to the north, Robert Burns included Stirlingshire, and left behind him some memorials of his visit - notably his "Lines Written on the Window of the Inn at Carron," and his famous "Stirling Lines." The places he visited, and the persons he associated with, come in for treatment in the present volume, and it is believed that the facts set forth will be read with interest by every admirer of the National Poet. In connection with the county, Burns´s muse was called into service, and one has but to name his immortal "Scots Wha Hae" in this connection. A history of the song, gathered from many sources, and Undoubtedly the most complete that has yet been published, is presented in the following pages. There are also notices of other effusions of country interest. One of the chief of his correspondents was Dr. John Moore, a "Son of the Rock," and father of the hero of Corunna.
