Literary & Artistic Landmarks of Edinburgh

Do you think one day they'll have little blue plaques all over Edinburgh with 'a blipper called xxx lived here'? I picked up this book at Blackhall Library the other day and thought it looked a bit dated, but might be worth a read. It turned out to be fascinating and I read it almost at one sitting. Descriptions of Walter Scott playing in Holyrood Park and Robert Burns escaping the pressure of literary salons by going sightseeing.
