Softcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. [light splash-stain to bottom page edges, otherwise just light handling wear, slight dog-earing at corners of front cover]. Trade PB (B&W photographs) INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the half-title page. "This riveting true-crime account focuses on the motivating factors of lust, greed, and cheating, which triggered two grisly murders in 1983: Walter Scott, the singer of the national hit song 'The Cheater,' and Sharon Williams, the spouse of Scott's wife's lover." (Scott was the frontman for the group Bob Kuban and the In-Men, a mid-60s one-hit-wonder group from St. Louis; "The Cheater," of course, was that hit.) Signed by Author.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. INSCRIPTION FROM GORDON BARNHART on half-title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to inside corners; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; Walter Scott was a populist with a vision for the new province. A newspaperman, entrepreneur, and land speculator before being elected to the House of Commons in 1900, by 1905, Scott had become leader of the Saskatchewan Liberal party and premier of the new province. after the 1905 election, Scott embarked on a program to build the province's infrastructure, including the Legislative Building and the University of Saskatchewan. He believed that agriculture was a vital component in the fabric of Saskatchewan life, and by including farm leadership in cabinet, he created a political climate founded on agriculture. Scott's government was also instrumental in enacting prohibition and establishing female suffrage. The fruits of Walter Scott labours in education, agriculture, and public policy continue to be harvested in Saskatchewan today, but few remember who planted the original seeds.

Hardie Christmas 1952 A.G."; a few marginal pencillings. Alexander Gray, economist and writer, and the club's immediate past President (the current President was Eric Linklater), concentrates much of his speech on Scott's background in the ballads, but sums up, "What Scotland owes to Burns and Scott is beyond all computation; but I am sure that, at least in the matter of the international balance of payments, she owes more to Scott than to Burns. It was Scott rather than Burns who made all manner of people with rather dubious claims anxious to establish their Scottish ancestry. And politically, Scott was the great reconciler. He reconciled Highlands and Lowlands, interpreting them to each other.". Inscribed by Author(s).
