This volume of twenty essays presents a unique insight into the
world of Scottish children's literature throughout the long
nineteenth century. As well as revisiting much-loved authors such
as Stevenson, Barrie, and MacDonald, it explores the neglected role
of women writers in shaping the inheritance of Scottish children's
literature, the significant contribution of Gaelic writers, and the
role of folklore and tradition. Essays also examine the
significance of children as literary protagonists, and as readers
themselves. In recovering these marginal voices and texts, and in
showing how well-known stories explore questions of culture,
identity, and language, The Land of Story-Books seeks to restore
the traditions of children's writing to the heart of Scottish
literary history.
