PRIDE AND PASSION

A study of Burns through his everyday life and phases of activity. Through actual source material, Burns speaks for himself, with little author comment. Background, development, relationships with men and women, his livelihood, his songs, and the true man, a Scot, in religion, politics, patriotism. He emerges as a realistic son of the soil, imaginative, witty, proud. A mature, incisive biography for scholars.
