Tales from the Penny BloodsCelebrating Sir Walter Scott, born on this day, 1771, historian, novelist, playwright, linguist and poet, & considered one of the earliest historical novelists (his contemporary, Jane Porter had already made a name in that genre).
His influence was felt across Europe and America, with novels such as Ivanhoe, The Bride of Lammermoor, the Waverley series & many more.
Happy Birthday, Sir Walter!
