OverviewExcerpt from The Waverley Novels: An Appreciation Charles alexander young, the author of this Appreciation, was born on new-year's Day, 1880, and perished in the earthquake of April, 1905, at Dharmsala, India. He was educated at the High School of Stirling and the University of Glasgow, and for both school and college he had a very loyal affection. On leaving Glasgow he spent a year in London cramming for the Indian Civil Service examination, in which he obtained second place, and this was followed by a year's residence at Christ Church, Oxford, where, as at Glasgow, he made many true friends. This book was written in the summer of 1901 for the Honours Degree in English Literature and History, but far from being a task, much love was given to the labour of writing it.
