Walter Scott Titles

Sometimes classic authors are considered so ‘difficult’ that their works lie unread today, even though when they were first published they were celebrity writers of their age. Walter Scott, the most widely-read novelist of the late nineteenth century, is the prime example – which is a great shame, as his stories and characters are gripping and insightful, especially when it comes to understanding the development of Scotland as a nation. Now Margaret Elphinstone, Emeritus Professor at the University of Strathclyde, joins forces with Real Reads to bring the best of Walter Scott’s novels back to life.
