1895. Part One of Two. The biography of Blackie who was one of one
of the best-known Scotsmen of his time. Blackie was a Radical and
Scottish nationalist in politics, but of a fearlessly independent
type; he was one of the characters of the Edinburgh of the day, and
was a well-known figure as he went about in his plaid, worn
shepherd-wise, wearing a broad brimmed hat, and carrying a big
stick. Contents of Volume One: Parentage and Childhood; At School
and College; Student Life in Gottingen; Student Life in Berlin;
Rome; End of Wanderjahre; Years of Struggle; The Test Acts;
Installation and Marriage; Aberdeen and University Reform;
Aeschylus and the Greek Chair; Edinburgh; and Lays, Lectures, and
Lyrics. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger
