Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Argyllshire Galleys: Some Typical Examples From Tomb Slabs and Crosses It would be easy to add to the number of examples of Galleys to be found on the Slabs and Crosses of Argyllshire; very many more exist in various parishes, but the typical specimens herein given suffice, perhaps, to show their great variety. It is through the courtesy of the Society of Antiquaries of Edinburgh, and their officials, that use has been made of Drummond´s famous work, Sculptured Monuments in Iona and the West Highlands. Messrs. Blackwood and Co. have also given leave to use Captain T. P. White´s work, Archæological Sketches in Scotland, Knapdale and Gigha; and to the Oban Times we are indebted for Mr. Alexander Carmichael´s Notes on the Sites where some of the Slabs were carved. This knowledge has hitherto been withheld from students. People have often enough wondered where schools of carving existed, but no definite knowledge has been obtained on the subject. Mr. Carmichael has located some among the places where these beautiful Slabs and Crosses were made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
