" One of the sweet singers of the new order. ... A noteworthy 

 contribution to modern Scottish poetry, and assures the author a 

 high place among the latter-day Scottish bards." — The Scottish 

 Review. 



" Touch the heart and make music in the memory. He sings of 

 his native shire, and in its own kindly tongue, but he also writes 

 perfect English." — People's Journal. 



" With a heart glowing with sympathy for all that lives, Mr. 

 Dodds finds his inspiration in the sights and sounds, the joys and 

 sorrows of a country life. He assails the pride of birth and wealth, 

 and exalts the native dignity of man. With an undoubted poetic 

 gift, a love of Nature, a tender touch, and a sense of humour, Mr. 

 Dodds has produced a creditable book." — Edinburgh Evening News.

" This is a poet with a listening attuned ear — a metrist, tender, 

 true to the earth, homely as all good men, and again shrewdly 

 witty." — Margaret M. Radford in the Daily Herald. 



His gift of simple and sincere melody remains unspoiled. Mr. 

 Dodds has too certain a touch and too fastidious a sense of poetry 

 to fall into the pits of doggerel that beset the path of the homely 

 versifier. These sincere songs, moreover, possess beyond their 

 lyrical interest, considerable value as literary essays in a charac- 

 teristic dialect." — Glasgow Evening Xews. 



" Mr. Dodds has a fund of fine poetic feeling and a genuine gift 

 of unforced, simple expression. He wisely sings only of themes his 

 heart knows. The humours and pathos of rustic life have no more 

 cunning an interpreter, nor, indeed, do they need one. Both in the 

 Doric and in English Mr. Dodds' instinct is sure and his craftsman- 

 ship delicate." — Educational Journal.
