The Trossachs - In Literature and Tradition #249852

This book does not profess to occupy the plac of a guide-book to the Trossachs. There are several excellent guide-books easily obtainable, which are valuable, not only to the visitor, but to those who know the district well. Nor does it profess any originality. The purpose of the com piler has been to collect in one book the references to the Trossachs district contained in the old historical records of Scotland; the descriptions of Trossachs given by many famous people throughout more than a century past and also to preserve the floating tradition of the neighbourhood learned from the older generation during more than twenty years' residence — tradition which might otherwise soon die away.
