The second edition, published anonymously in the same year as the first, of Sir Walter Scott's (1771-1832) seminal Scottish novel of the 1745 Jacobite Rising; which constituted both the author's initial venture into prose fiction and the beginning of the remarkably successful 'Waverley Novel' series.
