La prima edizione inglese uscì lo stesso anno ed ebbe un enorme successo, tanto che il primo giorno vennero vendute ben 7000 copie. In origine l'opera era promessa alla scrittrice Johanna Baillie in quanto doveva far parte di una raccolta, ma quando Scott la terminò si accorse che era troppo lunga, decise di scriverne un'altra e questa venne pubblicata separatamente. Persino il copyright per la pubblicazione venne pagato 1000 sterline: una cifra esorbitante per il periodo. L'intenzione di Scott era di ricreare in questo dramma la storia scozzese Legatura quasi assente in pessime condizioni. Fioriture. Completo. First french edition. First english edition was published in the same year and it had a great success, so great that the first day 7000 copies were sold.

The copyright for the publication was payed 1000 sterlins, a very high sum for that time.<BR>In this drama Scott wanted to recreate Scottish history. ALmost unbounded. Pages in good conditions with foxings. Complete
