Excerpt from Tales of a Grandfather, Vol. 1: Being the History of Scotland From the Earliest Period to the Close of the Rebellion, 1745-46 I esteem it a privilege to be permitted to say a few words by way of introduction to Sir Walter Scott's Tales of a Grandfather.

Excerpt from Tales of a Grandfather, Vol. 1 of 2: Being Stories Taken From Scottish History The nobles of an ancient and proud land, which they were wont to manage at their pleasure, were now stripped of their legislative privilege, unless in as far as exercised, like the rights of a petty corporation, by a handful of delegates; the smaller barons and gentry shared their humiliation, their little band of representatives being too few, and their voices too feeble, to produce any weight in the British House of Commons, to which a small por tion was admitted.
