Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Peterhead Smugglers of the Last Century: Or William and Annie, an Original Melo-Drama, in Three Acts; Also, Poems and Songs, With Biographical Notices Dear Sir, To you, who were an eye-witness of the very favourable and flattering reception with which the following Melo-Drama was received, on its first appearance on the stage, by an audience capable of judging of its merits, I need say nothing: But, while fashion predominates, it must be complied with, and, I must say something, however trifling, by way of Introduction, as many go no farther. A book, now-a-days, without preface, or introduction, would be looked upon as quite anomalous in book-making - it being thought by some as necessary an appendage as a pioneer in the army, before a battle, when roads are to be levelled, and obstructions cleared away, so as to let the main body pass without trouble. I do not, however, mean to follow the too hackneyed custom of bringing to your recollection the heroic and warlike deeds of your brave ancestors; nor of summoning up from the shades of other years, mistaken notions of airy grandeur; nor of saving how superior you yourself are, to every other person of your acquaintance in intellectual accomplishments; No; for you have more good sense than nut to know that such phraseology is often as much looked upon by some, to lampoon, as to panegyrize the patron, which I shall at present forbear. My object, in the meantime, being more to give you an account of the origin and history of the "Peterhead Smugglers," than of yourself, or forbears.

Download or read book The High Kilted Muse written by Murray Shoolbraid and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-04-02 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1832 the Scottish ballad collector Peter Buchan of Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, presented an anthology of risqué‚ and convivial songs and ballads to a Highland laird. When Professor Francis James Child of Harvard was preparing his magisterial edition of The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, he made inquiries about it, but it was not made available in time to be considered for his work. On his death it was presented to the Child Memorial Library at Harvard. Because of its unseemly materials, the manuscript languished there since, unprinted, though referred to now and again, and a few items from time to time made an appearance. The manuscript has now been transcribed with full annotation and with an introduction on the compiler, his times, and the Scottish bawdy tradition. It contains the texts (without tunes) of seventy-six bawdy songs and ballads, along with a long-lost scatological poem attributed to the Edinburgh writer James “Balloon” Tytler. Appendices give details of Buchan's two published collections of ballads. Additionally, there is a list of tale types and motifs, a glossary of Scots and archaic words, a bibliography, and an index. The High-Kilted Muse brings to light a long-suppressed volume and fills in a great gap in published bawdy songs and ballads.
