Book Overview
The magic of the stories in this book is very powerful, and in the hands of a master storyteller they have the freshness of stories told for the first time. There are traditional tales of great beauty, such as "Tam Lin" and "MacCodrum of the Seals"; exciting adventures--"The Adventures of Iain Direach" and "The Ailp King's Children"; and shrewd, simple fables like "The Fox" and "The Little Bannock", all of which will delight small children.

Scottish Fiary and Folk Tales and Legends
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Great book! I was looking for Scottish folklore for research in my graduate course work. This was a great resource, however there was only a brief statement on authenticity. As this was a research project, I could have used more background information on the sources for the author's stories.
Probably the best book of Scottish folk-tales.

This small book surprised me with its excellence. The short stories contained in it are all well written and fascinating to read. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Scottish folk-tales!
