Robert Burns : cronies, colleagues and contemporaries
Hempstead, James L.2008
Books, Manuscripts
This is definitely a new Burns book. Never before in the annals of Burns literature has such a detailed study been made of Burns's Cronies, Colleagues and Contemporaries. In its pages the reader will find much that is new, as the author's research has covered some 30 odd years. Included in the book are 250 illustrations, many in colour, several seen for the first time in a Burns publication. It is the kind of book that anyone picking it up will read and enjoy. It should be a valuable contribution to the 250th Anniversary of the poet's birth in 2009, which is also the 'Year of Homecoming'.
