Reader's note

Country House Library is proud to present a book that has be seen to be believed! It is truly beautiful with carved boards and a carved golden textblock that has a diamond pattern. This 'authors edition' is spectacular and no antique library is really complete without a title of this calibre. The text of the poems matches the beauty of the book's outer packaging, as shown in this stanza from 'The Lord of the Isles - Autumn departs — but still his mantle's fold, Rests on the groves of noble Somenrill, Beneath a shroud of russet dropped with gold, Tweed and his tributaries mingle still ; Hoarser the wind, and deeper sounds the ril, Yet lingering notes of sylvan music swel. The deep-toned cushat, and the redbreast shrill ; And yet some tints of summer splendour tell When the broad sun sinks down on Ettrick’s western fel - old English can create such marvellous imagery! Give this beautiful book the pride of place that it deserves.
