The Life and Letters of John Gibson Lockhart V1
Andrew Lang
- Part One of Two. From Abbotsford and Milton Lockhart manuscripts and other original sources with fifteen illustrations. A study of Lockhart, whose ferocity as a critic earned him the nickname Scorpion. He also wrote novels and the biography of Sir Walter Scott, who was his father-in-law. From the Preface: The Life of Mr. Lockhart has been compiled under many difficulties, some of which I foresaw, while others I did not anticipate. The book grew out of the publisher’s wish that I should prepare for him an edition of Mr. Lockhart’s Life of Sir Walter Scott. An introductory chapter on the author of that great work seemed desirable, and the chapter swelled into a biography of Mr. Lockhart.
