Contradictory publication dates edit

The publication dates here (in bold) appear to be contradictory. Can this be clarified?

"Composition The First Series comprised the period between the reign of Macbeth (1033) and the Union of the Crowns (1603) and it was published in December 1827"

"Publication Scott, Walter, Sir. Tales of a Grandfather; Being Stories Taken from Scottish History. Humbly Inscribed to Hugh Littlejohn, Esq. In Three Vols. Vol. I[II-III]. Printed for Cadell and Co. Edinburgh; Simpkin and Marshall, London; and John Cumming, Dublin. 1828." JF42 (talk) 05:57, 23 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
