Description
"St. Ronan's Well", by anonymous [Sir Walter Scott], Parker Edition, Revised and corrected, with a general preface, an introduction to each novel, and notes, historical and illustrative by The Author, 1839. Two Volumes in One. The Parker edition is considered the first ultimate American edition.
Saint Ronan's Well is a novel by Sir Walter Scott. It is the only novel he wrote with a 19th-century setting. The first edition was published in 1823. It is likely that Scott was responsible for some of the small changes to the text of the novel when it appeared in the 1827 'Tales and Romances'. During the latter part of 1830 he revised the text more extensively and provided an introduction and notes for the 'Magnum' edition, in which it appeared as Volumes 33 and 34 in February and March 1832. American Parker Edition issued the latest, 1832 version as volume 31-32 of 'Waverley Novels'.
