Critical Reviews
There are many books about Scottish Folk Magic, but none so far explore the many facets of Scottish Folk Magic and surrounding beliefs as thoroughly and with such passion. This book is one of the definitive works about animism, magic and folk belief in Scotland. Tarn, N., Canting Tribe Witch
Meaningful, magical and marvellous. Weaving over a decade of research and centuries of history together, this book is a fascinating insight into Scotland's folk belief and practices and forgotten history. Essential and long overdue reading for anyone with an interest in discovering Scotland's native traditions, customs and magic. Eileen, B., Storyteller
This book offers an incredible deep dive into the heart of Scottish folk beliefs. It addresses the colonial history of these traditions with a fresh, inclusive perspective. By inspiring community participation, the book brings Scottish folk practices and customs back to the centre of communal life. Alex, M., Community Educator
This book is as enthralling as it is exhaustively researched. As a native Gaelic speaker I delighted in learning the deep lore and mysticism behind some of the gnàthasan-cainnte I have known since childhood. This volume is a vital part of any Scottish and Gaelic esoteric library. Dr K. Duffy, PhD
