Photographs from In Search of Scotland by H. V. Morton, 1929. These beautiful photographs are out of copyright (UK before 1957) but the text itself is not, so I have included only short extracts (allowed under “Fair Dealing”). There is no indication as to who took the photographs: if they were by the author, I should expect mention of them in the text, but so far I have found none.
The sizes here refer to the photograph and not the border, which is actually printed in the book, I think in an attempt to mimic the more expensive and older style of pasting in plates.

Auld Reekie, or Edinburgh; in the distance the castle, but everywhere there is smoke.

The Shrine is the highest building in Edinburgh. It rises from virgin rock. Its walls spring from jagged ledges. In shape it is a sanctuary facing north with an east and west transept. [more...]
