Book excerpt: "Originally published in 1810, The Forest Minstrel represents the first full collection of songs by James Hogg, with a number of additional items by other writers associated with him. The Hogg songs contained include some of his first compositions as a shepherd in Ettrick, while others originate from early contact with the literary and musical culture of Edinburgh. This edition for the first time supplies musical settings for the majority of songs, whereas in the 1810 volume tunes are only nominated by title. These settings are based on extensive research in relevant pre-1811 Scottish music books. As a result, the modern reader is given access to the tunes which originally formed an integral part of the songs. An Introduction describes Hogg's development as a song-writer and the musical context in 1810; while full annotation is provided on both the texts of the songs and the related tunes."--BOOK JACKET.
