Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook for Travellers in Scotland Encouraged by the reception given to the last two editions of Murray's Handbook for Scotland, the Editor has spared no pains to make this edition still more worthy of the confidence of the travelling public. It has been most carefully revised throughout, and large portions have been added or rewritten. The text, moreover, has been entirely remodelled, the length exceeding that of the previous edition by over seventy pages. The Maps and Plans by Messrs. John Bartholomew co. Have been specially prepared 'for the Handbook, and are more numerous than in the last edition. The Editor's personal knowledge Of Scotland is very extensive, and he has travelled over most of the routes and made most of the excursions described - often several times. On this occasion, moreover, thanks to friends throughout the country, the description of every place of importance has been revised by them, or by other qualified persons resident in the locality. It is impossible to name individually all from whom assistance has been received, but the Editor desires to acknowledge his deep indebtedness to them for their help.
