Review:

'...it is a kaleidoscope of a way of life in the first half of the 20th century, a contribution of great importance. There are customs, myths, fairy stories and legends to fascinate anyone in the HIghlands and Islands and beyond. ...An utterly fascinating book'. Highland News'...Hamish Brown's compilation of Seton Gordon's work ...will be highly acclaimed in many circles, and rightly so. It covers a large area of Scotland and contains an abundance of material to keep the reader's attention, chapter after chapter'. Stornoway Gazette
