Excerpt from The Works of the Ettrick Shepherd It is gratifying to think that such genuine excellence has obtained a correspondent recognition. The productions of the Ettrick Shepherd, by their own intrinsic excellence, have won their way, and secured their proper place among the lasting literary achieve ments of our countrymen. While they excited the admiration of the bygone period, and made the public to wonder that they could have been written by any one under such adverse circumstances as his, their popularity was not, like that of so many contem poraneous works, confined to their own day. They have stood the severest ordeal of criticism, and every year has only added to their reputation. Like the national characteristics of Scotland, which they so well illustrate, they have only been hardened into permanence by the trial through which they have passed unscathed; and they bid fair to endure as long as Scottish individuality continues to be prized and cherished. And although the fashion of things may change with the mutations of time, the Ettrick Shepherd's writings, along with those of Scott and of Burns, will still continue to be valued as the faithful transcripts of an existence dear to memory, though its forms have become obsolete, as well as of those more solid and substantial national virtues which neither fashion can change nor time eradicate.

Excerpt from Memorials of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd The Memorials of James Hogg published in 1884, having been received with much kindness and approbation, an issue of the work in a slightly different and cheaper form has been asked. I have much pleasure in bringing this work in a less expensive form before a larger class of readers. The indomitable, perseverance and energy of the Ettrick Shepherd convey many a wholesome lesson. Fortunately there are few in the present day who have had such limited educational advantages, and still fewer who without those advantages have been able to rise to a position of marked eminence.

Excerpt from James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd James Hogg was born at Ettrickhall, in the parish of Ettrick, in the year 1770. Unfortunately, it is impossible to fix the exact date Of his birth. There was no Registration Act in those days, and birthdays in the case of ordinary mortals were seldom celebrated, SO that it is hardly surprising that our poet, when he began to interest himself in the matter, Should have had some difficulty in knowing when he first saw the light. He was wont to aflirm that he was born on the 25th of January, 1772. He may have been right as to the day and the month, but he was almost certainly wrong as to the year. In the Kirk Session Records Of Ettrick his baptism is recorded as having taken place on the 9th December, 1770. But if he was born in January, it does seem strange that he was not baptised till the following December. His father's house was Within a few yards Of the Manse, SO that even if he had been a very delicate child - Of which there is no evidence - there was noreason for his baptism being so long delayed. It has been surmised that Hogg fixed on the asth January as his natal day, because he had the ambition Of becoming the successor Of Burns, and perhaps thought that to be born on the same day was a favourable augury. There may not be much in the suggestion, though it is by no means incredible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Works of the Ettrick Shepherd: Poems Ballads In the present volume, we have endeavoured not only to give a complete collection of the Poetical Works of the Ettrick Shepherd, but also to present them in such a classified order, that each can be easily found under its own separate head. It is hoped that this simple plan will be an additional recommendation to the volume. The Poems themselves are so various in length, subject, and character, that some such arrangement was judged advisable, instead of throwing them together indiscriminately, or in the chronological order of their composition. They are "orient pearls," which, instead of being strung at random in publication, are worthy of a careful setting; and whether this has been done successfully, the reader is left to judge. It is deeply to be regretted that the late Professor Wilson, who had resolved to write the Life of James Hogg, was prevented by his numerous literary avocations and declining health from carrying his purpose into effect. For who could so well have accomplished such a labour of love in embalming the memory of the Ettrick Shepherd as Christopher North? To supply so irreparable a loss, the Memoir of Hogg contained in the present volume has been written, partly from communications with his family, partly from oral intimations of the few friends who still survive, and partly from his own reminiscences which he appended to several of his publications, and which are now given in their collected form at the end of this volume, as his Autobiography. And from this source and the Memoir, it is hoped that the reader will be able to learn how the author of the "Queen's Wake" looked, lived, and acted - what struggles he endured, and what difficulties he surmounted - and with what unsuspecting simplicity and warm-hearted honesty his checkered career was lightened and animated from its commencement to its close. And what need to speak of his genius? That is attested by the poems themselves, and the universal suffrage in their behalf. Note To Centenary Edition. In this Centenary Edition the Pictorial Illustrations are more numerous than in any previous edition, being now augmented by a series of engravings illustrative of the writings of the author, from designs by Keeley Halswelle, A. R. S. A., W. Small, and J. Lawson; and also by an engraving of the monumental statue of the Ettrick Shepherd erected at St. Mary's Loch. An Appendix to the Author's Life is also added, containing an account of the inauguration of the statue, the celebration of the centenary of his birth, a notice of his family, and other matters of interest.
