I found info on Everything2.com. It says "Six poems had been previously printed in The Magazine of Art, (Mar-Sep 1884)." and that "His childhood at Heriot Row inspired the poetry."

It mentions "summers he spent at his grandfather's country estate in Scotland as a child".

I would add this info to the main article except that

1. I don't have copyrights etc figured out yet and
2. I don't like stating as fact anything for which I have only one information source of unknown quality

The book aparently was made into a movie directed by Michael Sporn in 1992. A Thomas Meham is given writing credit along with RLS. Found this on IMBd. 69.231.83.223 01:14, 25 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

Why don't you write all the poems in the book into this article?

I entered a relevant pop culture reference but it was removed. As the article is a stub anyways, and I sourced the reference, I don't see why it should not be included. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aelius Maxiums (talk • contribs) 22:42, 24 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
