Scenes and Legends of the North of Scotland Or The Traditional History of Cromarty

Beschreibung

1869. Miller's stories, arranged as nearly as possible in the chronological order, form a long vista into the past of Scotland, with all its obsolete practices and all its exploded beliefs. His style illustrates a truth of scenery, justness of perspective and proportion and costume of the figures. Sample contents: Alypos; Bay of Cromarty; Macbeth; Remains of the Old Mythology; Fisherman's Widow; Dropping Cave; The Mermaid; Literati of Cromarty; Gudewife of Minitarf; Burn of Eathie; and much more.
