The best tales from around the country, chosen from our popular series of Folk Tales
This enchanting collection of stories gathers together legends from across Scotland in one special volume. Drawn from The History Press’ popular Folk Tales series, herein lies a treasure trove of tales from a wealth of talented storytellers. From the Spaeman’s peculiar advice and a laird who is transformed into a frog, to a fugitive hiding in a dark cave and the stoor worm battling with Assipattle, this book celebrates the distinct character of Scotland's different customs, beliefs and dialects, and is a treat for all who enjoy a well-told story.

The authors of this volume are all popular and talented professional storytellers living and performing in Scotland today. Each having authored a volume of county-based tales, they are experts in the folklore of their area. The foreword is from Donald Smith, the founding member of the Scottish Storytelling Forum, Edinburgh’s Guid Crack Club and currently Director of TRACS (Traditional Arts and Culture Scotland). He also curates two festivals: TradFest in the spring and the Scottish International Storytelling Festival in the autumn.
