Comment: In preparing for our coming Walter Scott course, Mary and I post on the internet book reviews bearing on Scott. These two above are the most recently posted and involve the first and second Scott novels (the third is IVANHOE, reviewed in April 2006) about that great scene-stealer King Richard I of England, the "Lion Heart." Also new is my discovery of http://www.epinions.com as a URL to place reviews and to win new readers for "The Laird of Abbotsford" aka "The Wizard of the North."
