Excerpt from Scotland's Ruined Abbeys The mediaeval architecture of Scotland has been amply treated in books of more or less scientific character. Accurate descriptions of every historic edifice in the ancient realm can be found, and historical sketches are not lacking. But the material at hand dealing with this subject exists only in a form too bulky for general use. The pamphlets, on the other hand, which are to be had at the site of many of these ruins, are often too superficial and sometimes incorrect and not suited to the purpose of more deeply interested persons, while both classes have ignored the romantic interest which centres about these places from the roles they play in the poetry and fiction for which Scotland has long been so famous. It is the purpose of this book to place in convenient form, at the disposal of interested travellers among the ruins of North Britain, and of all to whom these ancient buildings are an object of pleasant memory, an accurate, though necessarily brief, history of each of the more important abbeys, with a careful description of its structure in the light of the most recent study and criticism.

Widely regarded as the most beautiful of Scotland's ruined abbeys, Dryburgh has one of the most completely surviving monastic ranges. Surprisingly, however, this is the first full-length study of Scotland's premier Premonstratensian abbey which goes back to the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, a particularly important time in the history of the Scottish church.The authors of Melrose Abbey again collaborate to produce a rounded architectural and historical account of one of Scotland's most important and imposing historic buildings.
