The Poetical Works Of Robert Burns

With Explanatory Glossary, Notes, Memoir etc.

Published by Frederick Warne And Co: London 1889


" Robert Burns (25 January 1759 - 21 July 1796), also known familiarly as Rabbie Burns, was a Scottish poet and lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. He is the best known of the poets who have written in the Scots language, although much of his writing is in a "light Scots dialect" of English, accessible to an audience beyond Scotland. He also wrote in standard English, and in these writings his political or civil commentary is often at its bluntest."

Binding has been somewhat crudely repaired on the outer spine and the inner endpapers - not pretty but it is effective as the book is structurally sound. Text block is in very good condition with bright, clean pages and shimmering gilt. Great copy to enjoy as is or embark upon your own rebinding project. Please study photos to understand condition.

Size 19cm x 14.5cm x 4cm - 614 Pages
