Glimpses of Kirkwall and Its People in the Olden Time is a historical account of the town of Kirkwall, located in the Orkney Islands of Scotland, written by W.R. Mackintosh and originally published in 1887. The book provides a detailed look at the town's history, from its earliest days as a Viking settlement to its evolution into a bustling trading port and cultural center. Mackintosh also delves into the lives of the people who lived in Kirkwall throughout the centuries, including notable figures such as Bishop Robert Reid and the notorious pirate John Gow. The book is richly illustrated with maps, engravings, and photographs, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of this unique Scottish town.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
