The Modern Scottish Minstrel; Or, the Songs of Scotland of the Past Half Century - Volume I (Dodo Press) (Paperback)

Part of a six-volume series, with memoirs of the poets, and sketches and specimens in english verse of the most celebrated modern gaelic bards. "The plan of the work is distinct from that of every previous collection of Scottish song-the more esteemed lyrical compositions of the various bards being printed along with the memoirs of the respective authors, while the names of the poets have been arranged in chronological order."
