The Two Drovers by Walter Scott — Review

Walter Scott dedicated to the epoch of The Middle Ages most of his masterpieces. Each of his works is based on a certain concept of the historical process at a definite time.

 

The story “The Two Drovers” starts with an introduction, “It had been a brisk market; several dealers had attended from the northern and midland counties in England, and English money had flown so merrily about as to gladden the hearts of the Highland farmers.” The description gives an image of the everyday life of people including economic and cultural processes.

 

The narration tells about the friendship of two main characters; a Scotsman and an Englishman. The plot of the story is partly magical and at the same time very realistic.
