Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memorials and Letters, Vol. 2: Illustrative of Life and Times of John Graham of Claverhouse, Viscount Dundee
James, as their natural sovereign, with great perspicuity and strength of argument in the compass of a small page or two. Even Balhaldys able editor, Mr James Macs knight, would not suffer this to pass without a declara tion of his own scepticism on the subject; although con fessedly he had looked no further than Sir Walter Scott's careless note on the Drumclog dispatch written by Dun dee (as he tells us himself) when half asleep. Pos sibly, says Mr Macknight, the account of the battle of Drumclog, which is tlie 07n letter of Dundee's which the editor has seen, may have been an exception to his usual style. But a more wretched production, both in point of composition and ort/tograplzy, was never penned.
