Ranging from the 15th to the 18th century, this anthology of 20 traditional Scottish poems explores everything from revelry and ribaldry to bungling and brawling. The loose narrative, based on the actions of rapidly-sketched characters, is swift-paced and full of robust movement and detail. Each poem is also supplemented with a full introduction, notes, and an on-the-page glossary to ease understanding.
