Introduced by Thomas Crawford. <br/> First published in 1930 to an unprecedented storm of protest, Catherine Carswell&apos;s The Life of Robert Burns remains the standard work on its subject. <br/> Carswell deliberately shakes the image of Burns as a romantic hero – exposing the sexual misdemeanours, drinking bouts and waywardness that other, more reverential, biographies choose to overlook. <br/> Catherine Carswell&apos;s real achievement is to bring alive the personality of a great man: passionate, hard-living, generous, melancholic, morbid and triumphant . . . the very archetype of the supreme creative artist.
