$35 / item - Gilpin, Wm: Observations... on Great Britain, and High-Lands of Scotland, 2 volsLocated in Middletown, NYThis is Gilpin's third in his series of works tracing picturesque beauty in British natural landscapes. In it he portrays the landscapes of Scottish Highlands, and describes them lyrically in his text.
