The lady of the lake

by Sir Walter Scott

Lady Of The Lake is a lovely, 6-piece poem by Sir Walter Scott. This poetic story is the basis for many later works by other authors, and to this day, still sets the pace for emerging and contemporary writers. This work has inspired operas, has been misinterpreted by racist fools, and even now, it is able to move the hearts and minds of those who are currently present, as it surely will, generations still to come. Anyone interested in making movies may want to give this book a go of it, too; For, although written in another time and era, some things, like great writing, character-building, and scene construction, remain the same. And Sir Scott's mastery of such things is exemplified in this, his, "The Lady Of The Lake."
