Hidden from all but a few scholars and saved from being sold off at auction, Sir Walter Scott’s manuscript of his novel Rob Roy is set to go on show to the public for the first time in at least 100 years.
Written in the hand of one of the most famous Scottish writers, the manuscript of Sir Walter’s historical novel, published in 1817, will be on display at the free Treasures of the National Library of Scotland exhibition in Edinburgh from March.
