Ian CADELL & ALL:
I have found and purchased a hardbound copy of Vol XLI of XLVIII, Waverley Novels -
"Highland Widow..." by Sir Walter Scott,
Cadell Edition, no date shown, New York, Knight & Brown, limited to 1000 copies,
(footnotes were dated in 1831).
Ian, from the info I have, Robert CADELL (1788 - 1849) of your family became sole
publisher of Scott's works. "In May 1847, Mr.
CADELL took upon himself all the remaining debts upon the estate, on the transfer to him
by the family of their remaining claim
over Sir Walter's writings...Mr. CADELL issued Scott's works in every form and
shape. There was an edition suited to every class
of society...."
So far, what has interested me most is the historical references and descriptions of
Highland life after the '45.
