The Mountain Bard: Consisting Of Ballads And Songs Founded On Facts And Legendary Tales is a book written by James Hogg and published in 1807. The book is a collection of ballads and songs that are based on both factual events and legendary tales. The stories are set in the Scottish Borders, where Hogg himself was from. The book is divided into three sections, with the first section containing ballads about historical events such as the Battle of Flodden and the Jacobite Rising of 1745. The second section contains ballads and songs that are based on local legends and tales, such as the story of Tam Lin. The final section contains songs and ballads that are more personal to Hogg, including one about his own life. The book is considered to be an important work in Scottish literature, and Hogg is often referred to as the Ettrick Shepherd due to his background and the setting of many of his works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
