Drawing upon history, folklore, oral tradition, and cultural observation, Grimble captures the character of Highland communities through discussions of work, family life, customs, language, and regional identity. Richly illustrated throughout, the volume offers both a visual and narrative record of a distinctive culture whose influence extends far beyond Scotland itself.
