Greyfriars Bobby.
Greyfriars Bobby. | Eleanor Atkinson
4 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
Greyfriars Bobby was a Skye Terrier who became known in 19th-century Edinburgh for supposedly spending 14 years guarding the grave of his owner until he died himself on 14 January 1872. The story continues to be well known in Scotland, through several books and films, and a prominent commemorative statue and nearby graves act as a tourist attraction.

These are the books I bought at Leakey's Bookshop in Inverness in October. I am sure the nice gentleman who rang these up was rolling his eyes at me. That won't stop me from going back to Leakey's when I return to Scotland next month. #boughtonvacation #feistyfeb
