SONGS & POEMS OF BURNS
With 36 fine Illustrations in Colour by eminent artists. Quarto, 600 pp., buckram, 10s. 6d. net; printed in fine rag paper, and bound in fine vellum, 21s. net.
A handsome presentation edition of The Songs and Poems of Burns, containing an appreciation of the poet by Lord Rosebery. While many eminent artists have painted some of their finest pictures in depicting scenes from Burns, no attempt has previously been made to collect these within the bounds of an edition of his works. This new edition contains most of the finest of these pictures reproduced in colour, and forms a most admirable gift-book. The text is printed in black and red, with ample margins, and no expense has been spared to make the work a finite presentation edition. It may be added that everything in connection with the production of the work is of purely Scottish manufacture.
SONGS OF THE WORLD
Fcap. 8vo, 2s. 6d. net; in velvet Persian, 3s. 6d. net.
In this series, attractively illustrated in colour and produced for presentation purposes, are included such poets and song writers as may not have reached the very first rank, but whose work is worthy of much wider recognition.

“Certainly no such picture of the life of Scotland during the closing years of the 18th century has ever been written. He shows us with vivid directness and reality what like were the quiet lives of leal folk, burghers, and ministers, and country lairds a hundred years ago.”—S. R. Crockett.

Transcriber’s Notes:
Some portraits have been moved slightly to keep paragraphs and sentences intact.
Numbered blank pages between the end of one chapter and beginning of the next have not been retained. In the html version of the eBook, this has resulted in gaps in page numbers between end of a chapter and beginning of the next chapter but no content is missing from the ebook.
Spelling and hyphenation have been left as in the original. A few punctuation and typesetting errors have been corrected without note.
