No DRM (mobi)Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832) was a Scottish novelist, acclaimed as the inventor of the genre of the modern historical novel. He tried his hand at documenting his researches into the oral tradition of the Scottish Borders in prose fiction as a mimetic vehicle for portraying historical events, and published his first novel, Waverley, anonymously. There followed a succession of novels over the next years, each with a historical setting, rehabilitating the public perception of the ancient culture of the Scottish Highlands. Mindful of his reputation as a poet, Scott maintained the anonymity publishing under the name "Author of Waverley". This collection, contains his best works, in their original editions: Waverley, Guy Mannering, The Antiquary, Rob Roy, Ivanhoe, Kenilworth, The Fortunes of Nigel, Peveril of the Peak, Quentin Durward, Redgauntlet & Tales of the Crusaders.
