Description

This resource, from the BBC, features the online companion to its series "Burns Night." This Web site includes biographical background material as well as poetry text and audio (useful if to demonstrate what Burns' dialect sounds like). Even more importantly, the site includes step-by-step details on hosting a traditional Robert Burns dinner, including links for recipes for the much maligned haggis, made from sheep stomachs, lamb livers, and oatmeal!
