WILSON'S
TALES OF THE BORDERS
AND OF SCOTLAND:
HISTORICAL, TRADITIONARY, AND IMAGINATIVE.
Revised by ALEXANDER LEIGHTON.
No collection of tales published in a serial form ever enjoyed
so great a popularity as " The Tales of the Borders ; " and
the secret of their success lies in the fact that they are stories
in the truest sense of the word, illustrating in a graphic and
natural style the manners and customs, trials and sorrows,
sins and backslidings, of the men and women of whom they
treat. The heroes and heroines of these admirable stories
belong to every rank of life, from the king and noble to the
humble peasant.
The Scotsman says :— " Those who have read the tales in the
unwieldy tomes in which they are to be found in the libraries
will welcome the publication of this neat, handy, and well-
printed edition."
The Dundee Advertiser says :—" Considering h^w attractive
are these tales, whether regarded as illustrating Scottish life,
or as entertaining items of romance, there can be no doubt of
their continued popularity. "We last read them in volumes the
size of a family Bible, and we are glad to have an opportunity
to renew our acquaintance with them in a form so much more
handy and elegant."
