| 520 | _a"Wilson's Tales of the Borders and of Scotland, Volume 17" by Wilson and Leighton is a collection of historical and imaginative narratives written in the late 19th century. This volume features a range of stories steeped in Scottish folklore and regional history, showcasing diverse characters and events that illustrate the rich cultural tapestry of the Borders and Scotland. Among them are tales featuring courageous individuals like Roger Goldie, who face personal and national challenges amidst the backdrop of looming invasions. At the start of the collection, the story "Roger Goldie's Narrative" unfolds as we are introduced to Roger, a devoted husband and father, who is roused by a false alarm of French invasion in 1804. As he prepares to defend his homeland, we see the deep love he has for his wife, Agnes, and their son, Robert, who bravely chooses to follow his father into potential danger. The opening portrays a mixture of bravery, duty, and familial love, capturing Roger's internal struggle between his responsibilities as a soldier and a parent. The narrative explores themes of heroism, sacrifice, and the bonds of family as the characters react to the tumultuous times they find themselves in.
