Privately printed by Grace Lennox for members of the Torrance family. In a prefatory letter, Grace Walker writes that the reminiscences "were written by my mother, after persuasion, during her visit to Lesmahagow about 1975." In an editor's note, David W. Torrance reports that Grace typed out her mother's handwritten manuscript in 1983. Thereafter the manuscript was "professionally typed" and edited by David and Grace, which was completed in 2005.
