Project Gutenberg 2013-05-17 Public domain in the USA. 97 Black, William 1841 1898 Stand Fast, Craig-Royston! (Volume I) Produced by Al Haines "Stand Fast, Craig-Royston!" by William Black is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the main characters, George Bethune, a proud and eloquent Scotsman, and his granddaughter, Maisrie Bethune, as they navigate life in London. Themes of patriotism, the longing for home, and the clash of social classes are likely to unfold as the narrative progresses. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to George and Maisrie as they venture into the bustling streets of Piccadilly, distinct in their attire and demeanor from the fashionable crowd. George, a poet with a strong sense of Scottish nationalism, seeks assistance from the noble Lord Musselburgh for a collection of the works of Scottish poets abroad. Meanwhile, Maisrie, characterized by her delicate beauty and reserved nature, seems to bear the weight of her family's past as they reminisce about their Scottish roots. This poignant introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of identity, ambition, and the complexities of their relationship, hinting at future challenges and developments.
