Complete and unabridged, with 50 full-page plates by James Tissot, John Everett Millais and David Wilkie. A Scottish soldier of fortune comes home to find his bride carried off, and follows her across the Low Countries. Crockett wrote a novel a year for twenty years and knew the Galloway hills he set most of them in; this one moves fast and does not pretend to be anything but a chase. This edition carries fifty plates after Millais, Tissot, Sisley and Whaite, with ten in-text illustrations restored and coloured.
