Description:
Edinburgh: Archibald Constable, 1822. First Edition. 8vo, pp. 112, with publisher's catalogue tipped to the front, untrimmed in original printed wraps. Spine chipped, ties loose. A good copy of a fragile item. Some foxing. CBEL III, 370; Todd & Bowden158Aa; Ruff 171, (the advertisements are not called for). Scott wrote Halidon Hill as a result of a request from Joanna Baillie for a contribution to a poetical miscellany she was then editing. However, Scott's intended short work grew far too large for the original purpose and was substituted by another work. Constable 'without seeing the MS., forthwith tendered £1000 for the copyright - the same sum that had appeared almost irrationally munificent when offered in 1807 for the embryo Marmion' [Lockhart].

First edition, second impression (with dagger on p. 14); 8vo, pp. 8 (ads), [2], 8 (ads), 111, [1]; original drab printed wrappers; near fine. "As Scott explained to Byron the day after issue, this sketch was intended for Joanna Baille's forthcoming Collection of Poems (1823) but, as it soon 'ran out of bounds,' was now published separately. The author wished he could have dedicated it to Byron, 'your lordship being in lineal descent half a Gordon as I am a fourth part of a Swinton'." Todd & Bowden 158Ab noting that there are no watermarks but we find at least one with the date 1821.

London, 1822. First Edition. Presentation copy inscribed on the front free endpaper, "To Sir Alexr Keith Knight Marischal Ravelston from His Affectionate Kinsman The Author." Sir Alexander Keith, a close friend of Scott, was founder of the Keith Prize, a biennial prize for the most important discoveries in science made in any part of the world. Although this lesser-known work is written as a dramatic sketch, Scott tells us in the preface that it is not intended to be produced on the stage. Halidon Hill tells the story of the reconciliation between two feuding Scottish chiefs before they die valiantly in the fight against Edward III of England. The Eclectic Review of September 1822 says, "This is a 'sketch,' but it is from the hand of a master; and there is a chasteness and simplicity in the poetry, such… Read More
