About this book

From a turret room in Castle Coila, Murdoch M'Crimman sets down the family's strange story at the wish of his aunt and mother. The contents begin with a Highland feud and boyhood life, then a new home in the West, a landing at Rio and a long trip described as a dream, with a tragedy at the fonda. Pampa Indians, life on an Argentine estancia, an earthquake, hunting trips and an adventure with a tiger follow in the chapter titles. Gordon Stables also wrote The Cruise of the Snowbird and Wild Adventures Round the Pole.
