Guy Mannering (Illustrated Edition‪)‬

*Illustrated

*Includes Table of Contents

In the 19th century, the world’s best known writer was probably Sir Walter Scott, who was one of the first writers to have a following across the globe in his lifetime. The Scottish writer still pops up in literature classes across the world, with people instantly familiar with titles like Ivanhoe, The Lady of the Lake, Waverley, The Bride of Lammermoor, and more. Scott is often considered the inventor of the modern historical novel, and his style was imitated throughout the 19th century. His legacy has been debated ever since, but everyone can agree that he has remained influential. 


Though written anonymously, Guy Mannering proved very popular. According to Scott, he originally intended to give it a supernatural theme, but he changed his mind shortly after beginning it. This edition of Scott’s Guy Mannering is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with pictures of Scott, his life and work.
