This is an extraordinary collection of tales from one of the very
greatest Gaelic storytellers, Angus MacLellan, and translated by
one of Scotland's finest Celtic Scholars, John Lorne Campbell. The
stories in the book include every type of tale found on South Uist,
from Fingalian heroes and ghost stories to international folktales
and humorous and historical local anecdotes. These tales of ancient
kings, thrilling escapes, jealous stepmothers and magic spells are
fascinating not only for their narrative power, but also their
links with myths and legends from Ireland, Scandinavia, France and
Greece. The Hebrideaen island of South Uist was one of the last
places in Western Europe where the ancient art of Storytelling was
still honoured and practised, and the style of these translations
is at once original and hypnotic, reflecting the oral tradition at
their source.
