Abstract
The cover of this charming book features the Romantic portrait of Burns by Alexander Nasmyth, his cream breeches and white stock the only illumination in a darkly moody landscape, throwing light on his sweet and reflective expression. Offset in the corner is a black and white photograph of Harry Holland, also sweetly reflective but as far from Romantic as it is possible to be-a bluff, suited, serious, reliable, public man. And it is the dialogue between these two men, a century lying between them, that makes this such an interesting little book.
