Through So Many Dangers
ROBERT KIRK (KIRKWOOD), an enlisted man, served with the 42nd and 77th Highland Regiments in North America. He covered 5000 miles by foot, canoe, whaleboat, and transport ship. He was wounded, captured by Shawnees, and nearly scalped, but he lived to write his memoirs, which are published here for the first time since 1775. This book constitutes a superb team effort with paintings by renowned artist, Robert Griffing; an excellent and insightful introduction by best-selling British historian, Stephen Brumwell; and annotations, biographical notes, and essays by historians, Lt. Col. Ian McCulloch and Timothy Todish.
The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns, and Fairies
"The Secret Commonwealth is a guide to fairies, doppelgängers, wraiths, and other beings that its author Robert Kirk, an unusually inquisitive seventeenth-century Scottish minister, identifies as being ?of a middle nature betwixt man and angel.? Circulated in manuscript by its author, whose religious and scientific interests drew him at some genuine personal risk to investigate the hidden realities of the spiritual world, this short work was first published by Sir Walter Scott and then again in the late nineteenth century in an edition prepared by the famous collector of fairy tales, Andrew Lang, and dedicated to Robert Louis Stevenson. Nonetheless, Kirk’s work, which is a fine example of English prose, an important document in the history of ideas, and an enchanting introduction to fairy lore has remained a rarity"--Publisher description.
