Capturing the imagination of generations, William Linskills classic St Andrews Ghost Stories was first published in 1911, and remained in print through thirteen editions up to 1978. Richard originally republished Linskills work as the last section of his book Ghosts of St Andrews in 2013. This current edition has been published as an anniversary edition 110 years after the original, partly to stave off the cheap automated poor quality ocr/scanned copies having been churned out in recent years with jumbled words or missing text that do Linskill, St Andrews and new generations to Linskills work a grave injustice.Later editions had paragraphs and text omitted or changed. Richard has correlated and reinstated these changes. Following extensive research, he also explains the reality behind these stories and gives an insight into William Linskill, with new material and updates since his publishing in 2013.The Strange Story of St Andrews Haunted Tower is a nonfiction article written by William Linskill for the Citizen in 1925, turned into a booklet in 1938, and republished here for the first time. It comprises his commentary and excerpts of firsthand accounts for various openings of the Haunted Tower up to 1888. Linskill wrote it as a taster or synopsis for the complex mysteries surrounding the White Lady and her ghost. The full firsthand accounts themselves will be found in Richards 2015, A St Andrews Mystery, with 266 pages of nonfiction devoted to the same.
