Sobre este artículo
This is a copy of Sir Walter's Scott's Old Mortality, one of the Waverley novels first published in 1816. This one deals with the period of the Covenanters, featuring their victory at Loudoun Hill and their defeat at Bothwell Bridge, both in June 1679. A final section is set in 1689 at the time of the royalist defeat at Killiekrankie.
This is the fourth printing of the edition issued by J.M. Dent and Sons. It was published in 1916. 4 1/2" x 7"; 450 pages.
It appears to have just sat on a shelf for all of these years. You can tell that it was at least glanced at to page 127; from then on, the spine is un-cracked. At the back, the pages are still stuck together from printing.
The plain red cover has faded with time. The spine is red but covered with gold lettering and patterned design.
All of the wear to this book is shelfwear, although it may have been dropped because the spine has been re-glued.
Inside, the pages are all clean, clear, undamaged and unmarked.
Sinopsis

The two novels were published together in 1816. Old Mortality is considered one of Scott's best novels. It was originally titled The Tale of Old Mortality, but is generally shortened in most references.
