It explores Borrow's literary career, particularly his lesser-known poetic works, highlighting the significance of his translations and original
compositions. The opening of the bibliography establishes the purpose of the work by detailing Borrow's literary achievements and the publication history of his writings. Wise discusses Borrow's translations of Northern Ballads and poetry, explaining how they reflect Borrow’s adventures and interests.
