In Defense of Ossian is a book written by Keith Norman Macdonald and published in 1906. The book presents a summary of the evidence in favor of the authenticity of the Ossian poems, which were attributed to the legendary Gaelic bard Ossian. The author argues that the poems are not forgeries as some critics have claimed, but rather a genuine product of the ancient Scottish Gaelic culture. Macdonald provides a detailed analysis of the language, style, and content of the poems, as well as their historical context. He also examines the various arguments against the authenticity of the poems and refutes them one by one. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish Gaelic literature and culture, as well as for scholars studying the history of literary forgery and authenticity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
