Scottish novelist, Sir Walter Scott, was born in Edinburgh. Scott created and popularized historical novels such as Ivanhoe as well as writing much poetry.
Scott’s amiability, generosity, and modesty made him popular with his contemporaries, as can be seen in The Life of Sir Walter Scott - edited from his memoirs in 1848 by J.G. Lockhart.
