About this book
Anecdotes of old Scotland fill this collection by Edward Bannerman Ramsay, Dean of Edinburgh. Its chapters take up Scottish religious habits, old convivial customs, the family servant of earlier days, judges on the bench, and the humour found in Scottish expressions and proverbs, with a closing set of stories of wit.
This is the twenty-second edition, dated 1874, enlarged with the author's last corrections. A memoir by Cosmo Innes opens it, telling how Ramsay was born at Aberdeen in 1793 and sent to a school in Yorkshire at the age of eight.
