Excerpt from Border Raids and Reivers
It is in no spirit of mock-modesty we acknowledge how inadequately the object we have had in view has been realised. The subject is so large and many sided that we have found it difl'icult to compress within the compass of a single volume anything like an adequate outline of a theme which is at once so varied and interesting.
