Morvern Zusammenfassung

Morvern: A Highland Parish Norman MacLeod

Morvern is a roughly triangular-shaped peninsula lying west of Fort William and at the foot of the Great Glen. This work was first published in 1863, but its value today lies in its encapsulation of the past, and its evocation of the scenery of Morvern and its surroundings. It speaks of Morvern, but describes a whole breed of West Highlanders. It clarifies the Highlander's own view of the Clan, a very necessary exercise at a time when notions of what a Clan is, are becoming romantically distanced from the reality.

Morvern Bewertungen

'One of the most refreshing and delightful books which can anywhere be found'-Scotsman. 'It is difficult to give an idea of the variety of the book. The account of Rory, the minister's man, so clever as a steersman; the chapter on the Fools, the legends of the Highland churchyard, especially the myth of the Spanish Princess and the snowstorm tales - all breathe the air of the Highlands, and give life and warmth to the picture' - Saturdav Review.
