"Born in Edinburgh in 1771, Sir Walter Scott was one of the most prolific and revered authors of his time.

SGT (Join to see) The “Scott” Monument in Edinburgh was in need of cleaning last I saw it. The coatings of soot from heating fires diminishes the beauty of many monuments there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Monument
