Publisher's Synopsis

Glenshee is special because there is nowhere in the world quite like it, wild, romantic, beautiful, and steeped in history and legend. It has always been known as Glenshee, or as it is in Gaelic, Gleann Shith, the Glen of the Fairies. It has never had any other name, and until the old tongue died out the inhabitants were known as Sithichean a' Ghlinnshith or "Elves of Glenshee". The author, born and raised in Glenshee, draws the reader into the heart of the place, weaving history, legend and family anecdote into a haunting, at times humorous tale, teaming with character and incident.
