This second volume of Tales of the West Highlands contains thirty ursgeuln, or tales, fifty riddles plus a few 
extra stories. Tales where something magical occurs, fairies, giants, dwarfs, princes, princesses, kings and queens, speaking animals and the remarkable stupidity of some of the characters. 

20 years after the Elementary Education Act  of 1870 these tales were still being used in far-flung reaches of the Highlands to teach the young the lessons of life. 

Also included are Seanachas- old Highland stories which in their telling resemble no others, whose origins are lost in the mists of the Highlands, if not the midst of time.

Take some time out and travel back to a period before television and radio, a time when tales were passed on orally-at the drying kilns, at the communal well or in homes, where families would gather around a crackling and spitting hearth and granddad or grandma or uncle or auntie would delight and captivate the gathering with stories passed on to them from their parents and grandparents from time immemorial.
