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. In an attempt to create an ""ideal edition"" the editors commissioned a series of photographs of Scottish scenery ""to enable the reader fully to understand these backgrounds and thereby add materially to his appreciation of the authorÉThese pictures represent the scenes very much as Scott saw them. The natural sceneryÑmountains woods lakes rivers seashore and the likeÑis nearly the same as in his day. The ruins of ancient castles and abbeys were found to correspond very closely with his his descriptions.""
