Rhymes And Recollections Of A Hand-Loom Weaver

Bag om Rhymes And Recollections Of A Hand-Loom Weaver

Rhymes and Recollections of a Hand-Loom Weaver is a collection of poetry and personal recollections written by William Thom, a Scottish hand-loom weaver in the early 19th century. The book is divided into two parts: the first part consists of Thom's poems, which are written in a traditional Scottish dialect and cover a range of topics, including nature, social injustice, and the struggles of working-class life. The second part of the book is a memoir in which Thom describes his life as a hand-loom weaver, including his experiences with poverty, illness, and the changing industrial landscape of Scotland. The book provides a valuable insight into the life and work of a hand-loom weaver during a time of significant social and economic change in Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
