The long introduction is by Scott, but references to him in the body of the text (as "Sir Walter Scott") indicate that it is by other hands, and of later date than 1814. Note.--In this copy p. 1-8 of Appendix (Vol. II.) are wanting, p. 1-8 of the Introduction (Vol. I.) having repeated here by mistake. Physical description: 2 v., 90 plates : ill ; 28 cm. more |
