Angus is a landscape of dramatic glens and rich farmland, ancient
weaving towns and fishing villages, from the city of Dundee in the
lee of the Sidlaw hills in the south, and the Grampian mountains in
the north. The tales of Angus are as varied as the landscapes they
are tied to, told through the years in castles, bothies, tenements
and Travellers' tents. Here, historical legends tell of Caterans
roaming the glens, Jacobite intrigue in Glenisla and pirates roving
the stormy waters off the Arbroath coast. Kelpies, broonies and
fairies lurk just out of sight on riverbanks and hillsides, waiting
to draw unsuspecting travellers into another world. The land bears
memories of ancient battles, and ghosts continue to walk the old
roads in the gloaming. In this collection, storyteller and local
historian Erin Farley brings you a wealth of legends and folk
tales, both familiar and surprising.
