Burns [EPUB ebook] 
‘A Red, Red Rose’ and Other Poems

<p><b>In his short life, Robert Burns forged for himself a reputation as a poet and songwriter that has never been eclipsed. Today, more than 200 years after his death, his verse remains among the most popular in the world.</b><br><br>Best known for his dialect lyrical verse on nature, love, patriotism and rural life, as well as for such well-loved songs as Auld Lang Syne and Robert Bruces March to Bannockburn (Scots Wha Hae), he was equally as skilful with great lyrics on philosophical subjects. <br><br>Offering everything from simple ballads to great set pieces like Tam OShanter, this collection celebrates the work of the poor farmer-turned-exciseman who became, literally, the voice of an entire nation.</p>
