Sommario/riassunto

In the early nineteenth century, American writer Washington Irving took a trip abroad to spend some time in the quaint villages around the Scottish border. While there, he made the acquaintance of Sir Walter Scott, a long-time resident of the area. These charming sketches and essays document Irving's travels and his friendship with Scott.
