    John Wilson

    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, March 13, 2018)
    Excerpt from Wilson's Historical, Traditionary, and Imaginative Tales of the Borders, and of Scotland, Vol. 1: With a Glossary of Scotch WordsHis lot in life was somewhat mitigated, by sharing his hardships with a partner of kindred spirit. Some years before his decease he became connected in marriage with Miss Sarah Gladson, a lady of respectability, but not Of worldly means, who proved a most affectionate and devoted wife.The next course to which he resorted, was the delivery of a series of Lectures on Poetry, with Biographical and Individual Sketches, which he had prepared in three manuscript volumes. These Lectures he delivered, with various success, and often inadequate remuneration, in the principal towns of Scotland and England, until some time in 1832, when his wanderings were, by a kind Providence, brought to an end. He was invited to become the editor of the Berwick Advertiser, a weekly paper, published in his native town.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    John Mackay Wilson, Alexander Leighton

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, May 2, 2016)
    About the Book Fairy tales, wonder tales, magic tales are a folklore genre taking the form of a short story that typically includes magical beings such as dragons, elves, fairies, giants, gnomes, goblins, griffins, mermaids, talking animals, trolls, unicorns, or witches. Generally, magic or enchantments are involved. Fairy tales are distinguished from legends, are mainly derived from European tradition and folk lore, and are generally children's literature. Mythology has a broader and older pedigree than fairy tales, dating back to ancient times in a number of European, African, Middle Eastern and Asian civilizations. Best known among these to Western audiences are Ancient Greek and Old Norse myths and legends. Generally, these myths and legends describe epic quests, journeys and interactions between human adventurers or heroes and god-like deities. Also in this Book A short story collection is a book that contains short stories written by a single author. It is distinguished from an anthology of fiction, which includes stories by more than one author. About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades. While these books may have occasional imperfections, we consider that only hand checking of every page ensures readable content without poor picture quality, blurred or missing text etc. That's why we: republish only hand checked books; that are high quality; enabling readers to see classic books in original formats; that are unlikely to have missing or blurred pages.
