full text: Walter Scott: Chronicles of the Canongate ========================================= a machine-readable transcription [For archival on the Internet Wiretap, the portions have been concatenated. No other changes have been made.] Version 1.0: 1993-03-25 This machine-readable transcription of the Chronicles of the Canongate is based on the text published as volumes 41 and 48 of the Waverley Novels by Archibald Constable and Company in 1896. Volume 41 also included the Keepsake Stories, which have been separated from the Chronicles. The tale `The Surgeon's Daughter' originally appeared in volume 48, for reasons only printers and publishers will understand. The order of the files in this distribution are as follows: introduction - the author's introduction introduction.appendix - account of the first public announcement of Scott's authorship of the Waverley novels introductory - Chrystal Croftangry account of himself introductory.notes the.highland.widow the highland.widow.notes the.two.drovers.introduction the.two.drovers the two.drovers.notes the.surgeons.daughter.introduction the.surgeons.daughter.preface the.surgeons.daughter the.surgeons.daughter.conclusion Changes to the text ------------------- Page-breaks have been removed End-of-line hyphenations have been removed, and the previously hyphenated word placed at the end of the first text line. The text itself has been the main guide for keeping or removing the hyphen; in some cases the Centenary Edition has been consulted.
