SynopsisTaken from Campbell's collection of Gaelic folk-lore, "Waifs and Strays of Celtic Tradition," the myths and mysteries of Scotland are beutifully retold in short but powerful stories. A map of old Scotland is included to identify the exact setting of every story., 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., 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.
