hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Publication: Stirling, Eneas Mackay, 1936 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 118. Condition Report: Very Good. The volume is tightly bound in its original quarter dark green cloth over mottled green boards. The extremities exhibit minor rubbing and the corners are lightly bumped, though the binding remains completely sound and robust. The gilt lettering to the spine is remarkably bright and unoxidised. The text block edges display typical age-toning and mild dust-dulling to the top edge, whilst the fore and lower edges remain charmingly untrimmed. Internally, the pages are crisp and clean, exhibiting only faint, occasional spotting commensurate with its age, without any internal tears or notable blemishes. A highly presentable and structurally sound copy. Catalogue Note: First edition. A scarce and desirable work of Scottish Hebridean folklore, compiled by Florence Robertson Cameron. The book details 'true stories of second-sight' gathered firsthand from the inhabitants of the islands, offering a fascinating primary account of supernatural beliefs and Celtic mysticism in early twentieth-century Scotland. It is securely bound in an attractive quarter cloth over patterned boards.
