This came through the door courtesy of a super attentive and enthusiastic Patron who heard the Black Book of Paisley mentioned in my Updated Introduction to the Site and what we do here at Random Scottish History. It’s such a fabulous find, and I believe will make for an excellent addition, which will likely happen sooner, rather than later. Definitely something I’m very much looking forward, and excited, to get into. This wee gem is also apparently no. 41 out of only 86 copies!
