Scottish Tales sure to please,
This review is from: Tales of the Seal People: Scottish Folk Tales (International Folk Tale Series) (Paperback)
Tales of the Selkies, half human, half seal people are woven in Scottish myth and lore - even in my own family. So I was delighted to find this wonderful collection of short tales about the Selkie collected by Duncan Williamson.Just wish the tales were presented in a bit more depth. Highly recommended to those wish pure Scottish Lore.

This review is from: Tales of the Seal People: Scottish Folk Tales (International Folk Tale Series) (Paperback)
I think this is a really beautiful collection of authentic Scottish crofters' stories. Those not used to reading Scottish folk tales will probably find the stories repetitive at times, but the repetition is important - these themes were constants in the peoples' lives. It seems that Mr. Williamson did a good job of capturing the real stories and the real people who told them.
