Lady Nairne and Her Songs is a book written by George Henderson and published in 1905. The book is a biography of Lady Carolina Nairne, a Scottish songwriter and poet who lived from 1766 to 1845. Henderson provides a detailed account of Lady Nairne's life, including her upbringing in a prominent Scottish family, her marriage to a wealthy landowner, and her involvement in the Jacobite movement. The book also includes a comprehensive collection of Lady Nairne's songs and poems, which were popular in Scotland during her lifetime and continue to be performed today. Henderson provides background information on each song, including the inspiration behind it and the circumstances of its composition.
