Description:James Macpherson's The Poems of Ossian (1760 - 1763) were one of the publishing sensations of the eighteenth century.

This collection brings these documents for the first time to a wider audience.Other titles available in this series include, Shakespeare Imitations, Parodies and Forgeries (May 2004, 3 volumes, 350) and Romanticism and Science (2002, 5 volumes, 550)."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
