About this book

Orkney kayaks and Shetland Finns open David MacRitchie's argument that old traditions should be treated as evidence. Chapters take up mer-folk and skin boats, the Feinne, the Pechts or dwarfs and how they built, earth-houses and brochs, and the links between fians and fairies. He holds that future excavation will settle whether tradition is right. The book was first printed in 1890, mostly from articles in the Archaeological Review, and carries twenty illustrations.
