Book Description
Excerpt from Glen Desseray and Other Poems: Lyrical and Elegiac For the notes, glossarial and illustrative, I am mainly indebted to the Rev. T. Sinton, Minister of Glengarry, .and to Mr. Bayne of Helensburgh. My wish, at first, was to ask Mr. Sinton for a transliteration into English sounds of the many Gaelic place-names which occur. But a few specimens proved that this would be well-nigh practically impossible in the case of languages differing so deeply in their intonation. And it may be feared that the ignorant indifference, descending sometimes into stupid hostility, with which the beautiful Celtic dialects yet surviving in our islands are regarded by almost all except those to whom they are mother-tongues, would have rendered translation of the sound and the significance of these relics of the past an almost useless and un valued labour.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
