Description

Wonder Tales From Scottish Myth And Legend is a 1917 book by Scottish journalist and folklorist Donald A. Mackenzie. It consists of sixteen tales from the legends and myths of Scotland. From the Introduction: 'The myths and legends of Scotland are full of what is called 'local colour'. They afford us not only glimpses of ancient times and of old habits of thought and life, but also of the country itself at different times of the year. In the winter season the great mountain ranges are white with snow and many inland lochs are frozen over, but along the west coast, which is washed by the warm surface waters of the Atlantic and bathed in mild moist breezes from the south-west, there may be found sheltered and sunny spots where wild flowers continue to bloom.'
