This volume provides access to the relevant material in the various musical collections to which Hogg refers in his 1831 head notes, thus allowing twenty-first century readers to see in facsimile what Hogg himself saw. This procedure provides a broader context - in literary and musical terms - in which to enhance our understanding of the reception of Hogg's songs during his lifetime.
