David Laing: A Memoir Of His Life And Literary Work is a book written by Gilbert Goudie and published in 1913. The book is a biography of David Laing, a Scottish antiquary, librarian, and scholar who lived in the 19th century. The book covers Laing's life from his birth in 1793 to his death in 1878, and his contributions to Scottish literature and history. The author, Gilbert Goudie, was a friend and colleague of Laing and draws on personal knowledge and correspondence to provide an intimate portrait of the man. The book includes chapters on Laing's childhood, education, and career, as well as his work as a collector and editor of Scottish historical documents. It also covers his involvement in the founding of the Bannatyne Club, a society dedicated to the publication of rare Scottish texts. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish history and literature, and provides insight into the life and work of one of Scotland's most influential scholars.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
