Departing from conventional travelogs, the author's innovative approach incorporates descriptions of Scottish landscapes, along with literary and biographical sketches, character portraits, travel anecdotes, and reflections on issues of local and global significance. The author's focus on more enduring subjects has necessitated the omission of certain things that a typical tourist might notice. Rather, he draws attention to portrayals of prominent figures such as Knox, Burns, Wilson, and Sir Walter Scott. Ultimately, the author's aim has been to present readers with a vivid and comprehensive understanding of Scotland's scenery, literature, and religion in an engaging and accessible manner.

The Genius of Scotland explores the wide-ranging reception history of Robert Burns in the 18th and 19th centuries. The book investigates the figure of Burns as a ‘cultural production’ that was constructed by warring cultural forces in the literary marketplace. The Genius of Scotland debunks both the hagiographic and vituperative representations of the poet from this period, revealing not only how (and why) he was culturally produced as a national ‘genius’ but also how the process continues to influence our understanding of Burns into the present day.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Genius of Scotland: Or Sketches of Scottish Scenery, Literature and Religion Having been born and educated in Scotland, and possessing a tolerable acquaintance with its History and Literature, the Author of the following Work felt that he had some facilities for giving to the people of this country a just idea of his native Land. The plan of his work is somewhat new, combining in a larger degree, than he has hitherto seen attempted, descriptions of Scenery, with Literary and Biographical Sketches, portraitures of character social and religious, incidents of travel, and reflections on matters of local or general interest. Hence he has omitted many things which a mere tourist would not fail to notice, and supplied their place with sketches of more enduring interest. He would particularly invite attention to the sketches of Knox, Burns, Wilson, Chalmers, Bruce, 'The Ettrick Shepherd, ' and Sir Walter Scott. His rambles through fair or classic scenes are thus enlivened with useful information. In a word, it has been his endeavor, in an easy natural way, to give his readers an adequate conception of the Scenery, Literature, and Religion of Scotland.

To recall the immortal words of our Founding Fathers, "We hold these truths to be self-evident...," there are, in fact, truths which may not be so obvious or well-known, and one of these is the influence of Scottish Enlightenment on the birth of a great nation. Very few are aware of the impact of Scottish thinkers on our country's Founding Fathers. Yet that influence persists today - and could radiate to other enlightened countries tomorrow. Author Robert W. Galvin has uncovered the important contribution of the Scots as prime teacher of the English colonists, and the principle of founding revolution in governance. He presents this important part of history in his thought-provoking book, The Genius of a People. Discover what the Scottish Enlightenment did as you leaf through the pages of this informative and authoritative work. It will take you back to the 1750s where readers will find the grandest aggregation of leading scholars from all existing fields of knowledge of that time. Meet the scholars, thinkers, and philosophers who instructed and inspired the citizens of America. More importantly, you'll meet the Scottish clerics who were arriving in the colonies to evangelize and tutor the people. The Genius of a People is a must-read for all interested in the founding of our nation and the principles which guide it. It is a vital, thoughtful, and welcome contribution to history that merits a place among great books - one that also sets the tone for new public discourse on the origins of American democracy and nation-building.
