The Aberdeen Worthies is a book written by William Bannerman and published in 1840. The book consists of sketches of various notable individuals who lived in Aberdeen during the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century. These individuals are referred to as worthies due to their significant contributions to the community, whether it be in the fields of science, literature, politics, or religion. The book provides an overview of each individual's life and achievements, as well as their impact on the city of Aberdeen. Some of the worthies featured in the book include George Campbell, a professor of mathematics and astronomy at Marischal College; James Beattie, a philosopher and poet; and John Abercrombie, a physician and philosopher. Through these sketches, Bannerman paints a picture of the intellectual and cultural landscape of Aberdeen during this time period. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Aberdeen or the contributions of notable individuals to Scottish society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
