Publisher Description: Scotland has a very rich heritage in poetry. Many poets have been inspired to write by the grandeur of the scenery, while others have obtained their inspiration from urban scenes, wars, emotions and many other subjects. I have included 52 poems from 27 poets which include a variation in style of writing and subject matter which I am sure will appeal to most readers. The poets include Robert Burns, John Roy Stuart and James Hogg The Ettrick Shepherd]. I hope the reading of these poems will encourage people to get out a pen and keep this wonderful tradition going. Robert Burns is still regarded as Scotland's National Poet but there are so many to choose from that I plan to get together another volume before the end of the year. It will be such a shame if these talented writers are forgotten and their works no longer read. |
