The Heart of Scotland Painted by Sutton Palmer
A & C Black, 1909.
First edition. 4to. Dark blue pictorial cloth, with a floral design printed in pink and green, and lettered in gilt, to the spine and upper cover. Top edge gilt. Twenty four full page colour illustrations, by Sutton Palmer, under captioned tissue guards. Folding map of 'The Heart Of Scotland' bound to the rear. A very good copy indeed, a couple of small patches of discolouration to the cloth, but gilt gleaming.
Not only containing [Scotland's] most famous scenery, but as best blending Highland and Lowland charms... Pict and Scot, Celt and Sassenach, king and vassal, mailed baron and plaided chief, cateran and farmer, Jacobite and Hanoverian, gauger and smuggler, Kirk and Secession, here in turn carried on a series of struggles whose incidents should be well known through the Waverley Novels. But these famous romances seem too little known to hasty ready of today.
