In this volume the Publishers present to the reading public a new
edition of Sir Thomas Dick Lauder's first collection of Highland
Legends. Originally published under the somewhat misleading title
of "Highland Rambles and Long Legends to Shorten the Way," it has
been thought desirable that the title be abbreviated, and made
more decidedly descriptive of the volume, as the "rambles" form no
important part of the work. In all other respects the present edition
is a verbatim reprint of the work as it came from the hands of the
distinguished Author.
