" "The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner" retains its place as an astonishing 'classic' of nineteenth-century fiction." -- Rhona Brown, "Scotia"
"We are left to our own imaginations and our own devices to piece together what exactly happened in and around the lands of Delcastle in the early 1700s. This, in short, is the essence of Hogg's genius.... [Hogg] will take his place beside James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Dostoevsky and D. H. Lawrence. If you have read him, read him again in this new, unedited, and thoroughly annotated version. If you've never read him, you should." --Kay Gardner, "AB Bookman's Weekly"

His first work of original ballads, The Mountain Bard, appeared in 1807. He continued to work in sheep farming, without success, and in 1810 he moved to Edinburgh, where he concentrated on writing poetry. The Forest Minstrel was published in 1810, and was followed in 1813 by The Queen's Wake, the work which established him as a poet. This led to his friendship with Byron, Wordsworth, Southey and John Murray, who published an English edition of his work. Hogg joined the editorial board of Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine where his contributions were published under the name of the Ettrick Shepherd . Hogg published mainly poetry for the first forty years of his life.
His main works of fiction are The Three Perils of Man (1822) and its sequel The Three Perils of Women (1823) followed in 1824 by his masterpiece The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. In 1816 he was bequeathed a farm in Yarrow, where he spent most of his time for the rest of his life, combining farming with writing. He died on his farm on 21 November, 1835.
