Flemington And Tales From Angus by Violet Jacob PDF Summary

Book Description: Edited and introduced by Carol Anderson. ‘I think it is the best Scots romance since The Master of Ballantrae,’ said John Buchan when Flemington was first published in 1911. Violet Jacob’s fifth and finest novel is a tragic drama of the 1745 Jacobite Rising, tightly written, poetic in its symbolic intensity, lit by flashes of humour and informed by the author’s own family history as one of the Erskines of the House of Dun near Montrose. Drawn back to these roots in her later years, Violet Jacob also wrote many unforgettable short stories about the people, the landscapes and the language of the North-east. In this volume fourteen of these stories are re-collected and re-edited as Tales from Angus.
