It is a collection of traditional Scottish folk tales that were orally passed down through generations in the West Highlands region of Scotland.

The tales cover a wide range of themes, including love, magic, adventure, and the supernatural. The book is written in English, but it includes many Scottish Gaelic words and phrases, which are also translated for non-Gaelic speakers. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish folklore and traditional storytelling.1860. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766178765, 0766178773, 0766178781. Volume 1 of 4. This collection of West Country stories was dedicated to the son of the author's Chief, in the hope that it may add to the interest which was felt in a people of whom a large number looked with respect on Mac Callen Mor, as the head of their tribe. Amidst curious rubbish you will find sound sense if you look for it. You will find the creed of the people, as shown in their stories, to be that wisdom and courage, though weak, may overcome strength and ignorance and pride: that the most despised is often the most worthy; that small beginnings lead to great results.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
