Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Interludes, Records and Reflections
You will forgive me for dedicating this little book (without your permission) to you. You have, throughout your happily long life, been a consistent supporter of all that is best. You have never bowed the knee to Baal. Scot you are, and canny you may be, as your birth-land pro verbially expects. But your canniness has always been exercised to benefit others rather than your self, and therefore I prefer to call it a wise humanity. You have strong dislikes, and cordial likings; but you have never lost the respect of those whose methods you dislike, and have ever preserved the affection of those whom you like, amongst whom may, I trust (regardless of this book), be reckoned.
