Romances of the Old Town of Edinburgh is a book written by Alexander Leighton and first published in 1867. The book is a collection of historical and fictional tales set in Edinburgh's old town, which was a hub of activity during the 16th and 17th centuries. The stories are based on real events and characters, as well as legends and myths that have been passed down through the generations. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of life in old Edinburgh. Some of the stories revolve around the city's famous landmarks, such as Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, while others explore the lives of ordinary people living in the cramped tenements and narrow alleys that characterized the old town. Leighton's writing style is engaging and vivid, bringing the sights, sounds, and smells of old Edinburgh to life. He paints a picture of a city that was both beautiful and brutal, where wealth and poverty existed side by side and where danger lurked around every corner. Overall, Romances of the Old Town of Edinburgh is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, full of colorful characters and gripping stories. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Scottish history or literature, or for those who simply enjoy a good tale well told.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
