Description
Linking in with a BBC Schools Documentary, Iain Rose and Donald gunn present a rounded picture of Burns and his poetry for the younger reader. The extensive use of illustration and quotation places Burns very much in his time and illustrates the range of historical and literary references in his work. Burns lived at a time of dramatic change - political, industrial and social - in Scotland, and this book illuminates both the life and times of the nation's greatest poet.
