The Illustrated Book Of Scottish Songs

Originally published in 1854. Introduction: Most writers upon the subject of Scottish song and music have hitherto drawn a marked distinction between England and Scotland.

They have considered the people on the two sides of the tweed to be quite distinct - each with a music and literature as well as opinions of its own.

This early works on Scottish songs is thoroughly illustrated throughout and will appeal greatly to all historians.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.

We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
