Mr. Robert Law.\" but came to be regarded as a work which was more important in its own right.\u003cbr\u003eA Biographical Sketch of the 'polished and aristocratic', 'capricious and eccentric' author follows, with a good description of the scope of Sharpe's correspondence, literary labours, etchings and collections.\u003cbr\u003eThe historical account itself is presented in twelve chapters, with an Appendix, the editor's own compilation of a 'Short List of Books on Scottish Witchcraft and Superstition' and an Index.","brand":"Zeticula","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47048686960880,"sku":"9781849210645","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781849210645_p0.jpg?v=1763753406","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781849210645","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
