DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Bards of Angus and the Mearns: An Anthology of the Counties It seems unnecessary for us to enlarge on the poetic eminence of these counties, but in estimating its importance it should be remembered that Angus was the birthplace of Scotland's first classic poet, and that from the Mearns sprang the greatest of the world's lyric bards. Nor do the great names of Gavin Douglas and Robert Burns exhaust the list of those through whom the poetic fame of these northern shires has become universal: those great collectors and preservers of our National Song, Bannatyne, Herd, and Edwards; and many writers who - like the Beatties, Ross, Laing, Balfour, Smart, and Leighton - have an accredited place in the shrine of Scottish Song, are numbered among their honoured sons.
