STORIES FROM NOVA SCOTIA by Calum I N MacLeod - From the preface: "Within the last few years, I have received several requests to translate these Gaelic stories into English. My translations are not polished or academic; they are strictly literal and homespun, in an attempt to illustrate the idiom, colourful phrases, and expressions of Scottic Gaelic. They should also help the acquirer of written Gaelic to understand the syntax, costruction, and grammar of the language."  129 pages. Very good condition for a former library book. This is probably a first edition of  1974.
