Synopsis

On Scotch soil Mr Crockett is always charming, in France he is obviously playing with fire. Crockett has the bee of popularity in his bonnet and as a plot-inventor he has surpassed himself in this new venture. His new story, though involved and ‘sensational’ is certainly interesting. One reads it all through. Serialised in 1891-2, some chapters were included in ‘Bog Myrtle and Peat’ but this edition of ‘A Galloway Herd’ is the first time that Wattie Anderson’s incredible, implausible story is available to readers in the UK in novel form. An unabashed tale of a rural childhood, where nothing is ordinary and romance is everywhere, this is a must read for anyone who thrills to boy’s own adventure, dramatically told. This is sensational melodrama at its best – give yourself up to it and you will be fully rewarded. The Galloway Collection is a wholly new edited version of the works of S.R.Crockett, not a reprinted facsimile or a scanned copy. Ayton Publishing Limited is committed to achieving a high production standard at a reasonable price. The original conventions of punctuation and style have been kept where appropriate but each volume has been individually edited, typeset, proofed and produced to modern standards and includes an original introduction by series editor Cally Phillips.
