Saint Ronan's Well

## Find Out What Scott Really Wrote Going back to the original manuscripts, a team of scholars has uncovered what Scott originally wrote and intended his public to read before errors, misreadings and expurgations crept in during production. ## The Edinburgh Edition offers you: * A clean, corrected text * Textual histories * Explanatory notes * Verbal changes from the first-edition text * Full glossaries ## Title Description Meg Dods, a sentimental virago, keeps a rundown inn in a derelict Tweedale village, while the young Laird is living way beyond his means. When a nearby spring becomes a Spa, life changes as a hotel and a troop of social climbers move in. But this is not a tale of antique virtue giving way to decadent ostentation: although the gang at the ‘Well’ dance the seven deadly sins, everyone in the book has feet of clay.
