Publisher Description A new collection of Folklore and Fairy Tales featuring the everyday stories of the highlands and lowlands of Scotland. The folklore of Scotland has gripped the imagination for centuries, with its stories of sublime creatures, high adventures and uncanny spirits of all kinds. The human and fairy realms of Scotlands mythical heritage blur seamlessly together: knights and clan leaders clash swords in the same lands where brownies and bogles romp; and simple farmers and fishermen frequently cross paths with the enchanting and formidable fair folk of both land and sea. Long has been the exchange of culture between Scotland and Ireland, leading to some familiar characters cropping up in both countries mythologies. Nonetheless, Scotlands folklore adds its own flavour to the telling of some well-known Gaelic tales, as well as a variety of stories that are uniquely Scottish. From legends of siege, chivalry and courage like Conall Cra Bhuidhe and Black Agnes, to whimsical yarns such as The Fairies of Merlins Crag; from the frightening stories of The Haunted Ships and The Ghosts of Craig-Aulnaic, to tales of animals such as The Brown Bear of the Green Glen – this gorgeous collection of folk and fairy tales captures the essence of Scotlands ancient and vibrant folkloric tradition. 25 b/w illustrations Hardback, Deluxe edition, printed on silver, matt laminated, gold and silver foil stamped, embossed Author Biography Allison Galbraith (foreword) is an author and storyteller.
