It has no ISBN or published date. The binding has come off of the spine on the top, there is a partial document showing about the metric system. Looks like it was used as the underbinding of the book. Kind of cool. The pages are very thick. There is nothing on the spine to tell me what the book is. It's one of those old ones you see by the hundreds on the back shelves of book stores where you can't get to it easily & soon tire of pulling each one looking for a treasure. I don't recall if that is how I found this one or if it came from my grandfather. Either of us were likely to spend an hour doing something like that, though. Anyway, I'm finally getting around to reading it. It is Sir Walter Scott writing a history of Scotland to his grandson. He tells the story from the Roman occupation splitting the isle, then MacBeth's story. Now I'm reading about how Longshanks, Edward I, decided to get Scotland for his own.It's a good book, but there are too many others in its way right now. I spent as much time getting back up to date on it as I did reading last night. I'm going to shelve it for now & pick it up again later. It's a re-read, although it's been 30 years or more since I last read it. Too many new books. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
