Robert Burns (1759-96) was born into a farming family in Ayrshire,
Scotland. The publication in 1786 of his first book, Poems, Chiefly
in the Scottish dialect, made him famous overnight, and saw him
feted by Edinburgh society. But Burns made no money from his
writing and quickly fell on hard times, returning to farming in
Dumfries and, when that failed, to work as an excise officer. He
devoted his final years to poetry and the writing of Scottish
songs.
