"Traditions of Edinburgh" by Robert Chambers is an early 19th century book that is just as riveting now as it was when it was first published almost two centuries ago. Edinburgh is full of history, culture, and tradition, and this book explores all of it so people around the globe could read and learn about them.
Robert Chambers (1802-1871) was a Scottish author and publisher and the younger brother of William Chambers of Glenormiston (1800- 1883) who was also a publisher and politician. The two brothers eventually united as partners in the publishing firm of W. & R. Chambers. In the beginning of 1832 William Chambers started a weekly publication under the title of Chambers's Edinburgh Journal, which speedily attained a large circulation. Robert was at first only a contributor. After fourteen numbers had appeared, however, he was associated with his brother as joint editor, and his collaboration contributed more perhaps than anything else to the success of the Journal.
