The Grampians Desolate: A Poem
Vernor and Hood in the Poultry, 1804. Hardcover. First and only original edition of this protracted poem, with extensive notes (p.155-312) yielding much historical information, and an index. Profits from the original sale in aid of The Fund of Aid for Waste Land Cultivators. Good biography of Campbell at Electric Scotland - he was married to the Lady of the Keppoch MacDonalds (and see Back to Lochaber - Stuart MacDonald 1994), but his romanticism did not lend itself to sheep farming in Lochaber, and an acrimonious separation followed. He was the author of the voluminous 2 volume A Tour from Edinburgh through various parts of North Britain in 1802, considered his best work, though this is probably much rarer. Leather spine and corners chipped and rubbed, but a strong possibly original secure binding. No inscriptions. Some scattered spotting. vii, [i], 316 pp. . Very Good
