Excerpt from The Berwick and Lothian Coasts I have spent many hours in the Advocates Library at Edinburgh, in Cambridge University Library and in the London Library, and it would be very difficult to give a complete list of all the books to which I have referred; obligations sufii ciently definite are acknowledged in the text, but to the following works I wish in addition to ex press a general indebtedness Scottish Histories of different scope by William Robertson, Cosmo Innes, J. Hill Burton, P. F. Tytler, William F. Skene, Andrew Lang, and particularly Professor Hume Brown; Castellated and Domestic, also Ecclesiastical, Architecture of Scotland, by David Macgibbon and Thomas Ross; Scenery of Scotland, by Archibald Geikie the Dictionary of National Biography, and above all the Statistical Accounts of Scotland pub lished in 1791 - 9 (sir John Sinclair) and in 1845. The latter is by far the most satisfactory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
