Introduction to Scottish history discusses many places and characters, many of which are still familiar today, while others are less known. Style may be bit a pretentious, as the author admits, "to elevate a topographical work into the superior region of the belles lettres" (Preface, p. v). Much interesting folklore and description of villages in early 19th century.
