Author’s Edition

Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832) was a Scottish novelist, poet, and historian, widely regarded as one of the pioneers of historical fiction. His novels, including Ivanhoe, Rob Roy, and Waverley, brought Scotland’s past to life, blending romance, adventure, and historical detail. Scott also gained fame as a poet, with works such as The Lady of the Lake and Marmion. His writing helped shape the modern perception of Scottish identity and influenced generations of authors. A literary giant of the Romantic era, Scott’s legacy endures in literature and Scottish cultural history.
