Summary

This collection of traditional lore and literature about a selection of animals particularly associated with Scotland shows how animals can still reflect the generous and vicious sides to man's nature. Thirty different animals are covered, ranging from the extinct Brown Bear and Elk to endangered species like the Pine Marten and the six-horned Highland sheep. Each animal is illustrated in line drawing by Malcolm J. Robinson.
