P. Kemble Life and Works of John Home & Reliques of Robert Burns. Engravings by Cadell. FORE-EDGE PAINTING A beautiful and detailed early fore-edge of Aberdeen's North Pier and docks from the South Pier Circa 1700-1800s Footdee Years ago there was much Ferrying 'to and fro' between Futty as it was then called in the language that was never spelt or written down consistently and the South Bank Torry on the opposite side of the River Dee estuary. There was no North Pier in those days and the point from which it now emanates was a low wind-swept sand dune then called the Sandness and the houses of Futty stood further west by the Waterside nearby where to-day we see St. Clement's Church. Formerly referred to as Fishtown it could readily be abbreviated in the local dialect to Fittie. On the Sandness at this time 1513 -1542 a 'D' shaped Fort called the Blockhouse was built which stood there with its round side facing seaward until demolished years ago its purpose being to protect the harbour from " Pirats and Algarads" as Parson Gordon stated it in 1661. It was furnished with 10 cannon 12-pounders which were removed to the Torry Fort after the erection of the North Pier. The Fore-Edge Painting was taken from a painting originally by William Henry Bartlett 1809-1854 James Nichol & James Nisbet and Co. hardcover

Scott's personal charm his combination of masculine sense with wide and generous sympathy enabled him to attract an unprecedentedly numerous circle of readers to these almost impromptu utterances of a teeming imagination"" DNB. The autograph letter bound into Volume I is dated 1827 Edinburgh and addressed to Frances Lady Shelley. Shelley's husband was a distant relation of the poet but Lady Shelley is most well-known today for being a close friend of the Duke of Wellington the soldier and politician who would assume the role of Prime Minister one year after this letter's composition. In addition to referring to an earlier visit Lady Shelley had made to Scott's country house Abbotsford Scott asks her to receive his son also Walter Scott an officer in the 15th Hussars when he comes to visit and alludes to the possibility of Lady Shelley using her connection to Wellington to help advance the younger Walter Scott's military career. Scott recorded writing this letter to Lady Shelley in his journal the next day. The letter has been trimmed on the one edge affecting both text and the signature of Scott. Includes Scott's most famous works Waverley Rob Roy The Bride of Lammermoor and Ivanhoe.
