About this product

Product Information

In this collection of fifty-one tales from the land of galloway,Alan Temperley pays tribute to the great Scottish tradition of storytelling.The tales are wide-ranging-heros,ghosts and solway smugglers;witches, martyrs,mermaids and fairies;reivers,monsters and colourful rogues. Here are Billy Marshall,King of the tinklers;Sawney Bean,the murderouscannibal;young Robert the Brube on the run in the heather;Trost,last of the Picts,who kept the secret of heather ale;the legend of Mons Meg;Claverhouse and Lagg,persecutors of the Covenanters;the famous poterguist of Rerrick;and many more. Simply told and unadorned,the stories bear the flavour of the region- mountain and forest,silver rivers and lochs,the wild Solway Firth,and some of the most beautiful rolling countryside in Britain. Origionally these traditional tales-ranging from rustic comedy to horrific murder-were told in crofts and rural cottages.They grew naturally out of the rich past and the land and the lives of the people-wonderful stories.And they are still as alive today as when they were first told.

The book is in "reasonable" condition! not vg condition as described- front cover permanent fold over on arrival, packed this way ? pages are yellowing. Seller may be best to place a description "proper" of actual book being sold on the listing with photos so buyers know what they are receiving for the price paid.
