Book description
About the Book
The Kingdom of Kippen is located on a hill overlooking the Fort Valley and has thirty miles of landscape. Three minutes' walk from Kippen Cross, on the way to the Music Hall, and about thirty yards from the first house of this hamlet, you can see one of the widest and most beautiful views in Britain. To the right, rising like towers in a valley, we have three cliffs, namely: Craigforth, Craig Abbey, and Sterling Castle; in the distance Demyat and Ochil ridge; and sweeping to the left, the wild heathers of Wam War, Ben Voirlich, Bed Lady, Ben Aan, the strong rocks of Ben Ven, Ben More, and Ben Lomond; lying at our feet, there is Kars Sterling, which merges and includes the Valley of Menteite. The scene, as far as the eye can see, is classic. Associations of fascinating historical interest are associated with the area, while Sir Walter Scott has added creations of romance and songs that will never die. Books in English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh Literature contain the works of English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh authors. Titles include: Gill's Irish Reciter. A Selection of Gems from Ireland's Modern Literature, The Pocket Library of English Literature: Elizabethan & Jacobean Pamphlets, Lectures on the English comic writers, Three Centuries of Scottish Literature. Vol. I. The Reformation to the Union, Three Centuries of Scottish Literature. Vol. II - the Union to Scott, and The Influence of Gothic Literature on Sir Walter Scott.
