APPENDIX No. 1.
A Bibliographical Note by Clement Shorter.
George Borrow commenced his literary career with a translation of
Klinger's "Faustus" in 1825, and by a compilation of "Celebrated Trials"
in the same year. Both these books appeared in London while he was
engaged as a bookseller's hack, as described in "Lavengro." In 1826
Borrow returned to Norwich, and there he issued from the printing-house
of S. Wilkin, in the Upper Haymarket, these "Romantic Ballads." He had
worked hard at collecting subscribers, and two hundred copies were
reserved for Norwich at half a guinea each copy; the remaining three
hundred out of an edition of five hundred were sent to London.
