Reseña del editor

The scenes presented in these pages do not profess to be a complete survey of social life in Scotland; but it may be claimed for them that, in their subject-matter, they are typical of the Scottish nation. There are peers in Scotland, as well as peasants, castles as well as cottages; and the habits of thought and manner among the classes of the North differ as much as they differ in England, or in any other ancient civilisation. Still, as Disraeli said, it is the humble in our realm that is most abiding in national characteristics; which thought is the justification, should any be deemed necessary, for these pages. The List of Illustrations contains the names of the owners of the paintings which have been reproduced in this volume.
