In the 19th century, the worlds best known writer was probably Sir Walter Scott, who was one of the first writers to have a following across the globe in his lifetime. The Scottish writer still pops up in literature classes across the world, with people instantly familiar with titles like Ivanhoe, The Lady of the Lake, Waverley, The Bride of Lammermoor, and more. Scott is often considered the inventor of the modern historical novel, and his style was imitated throughout the 19th century. His legacy has been debated ever since, but everyone can agree that he has remained influential. Published with A Legend of Montrose, The Bride of Lammermoor takes place in 18th century Scotland during the reign of Queen Anne. The story centers around a tragic love affair between Lucy Ashton and her family's enemy, Edgar Ravenswood. Scott claimed his plot was based on an actual incident. This edition of Scotts The Bride of Lammermoor is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with pictures of Scott, his life and work.
