David Elginbrod is a novel giving a vivid depiction of Scottish country life, in the dialect of Aberdeen. The chief characters are upright and righteous, a dignified and pious Scottish peasant, and his daughter.

It will attract the highest class of readers" - Times."A clever novel. The incidents are exciting, and the interest is maintained to the close.
