1928. With 28 illustrations. Sir Harry Lauder was the most successful star of the English music halls in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Scotland's image in the world today owes much to the caricature presented by Harry Lauder's stage performances. His extravagant highland dress, glengarry at a jaunty angle, humor, ultra-thrifty attitudes and sentimental songs endeared him to many audiences. Lauder recalls his glory days in this volume of memoirs named after the song Roamin' in the Gloamin, which was inspired by love for his wife.
