American banker J.P. Morgan was born on April 17th,
1837. Aside from founding his bank,
Morgan is important to Walter Scott fans for many reasons. Morgan was a major collector of original
manuscripts, and the Morgan Library in New York City contains nine of Scott’s
novels. Scott’s journal was on display recently as part of a diary exhibition. Anyone considering a trip to New York this
summer would do well to stop by the Morgan.
It’s also a fun place to relax with music and a drink.
