$Back o\'the Hill : Highland Yesterdays$

In this poignant and thought-provoking book, John G. Gibson revisits the Glenfinnan of his boyhood, a beautiful, remote corner of Scotland well-known as the place where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard at the start of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion. Returning years later from Canada, Gibson's childhood memories of people and places are filtered through the accumulated knowledge of a life-time of study and research about the Scottish Gaelic world. This unusual and imaginative blend of history and personal recollection underlines the subtle ways which memory and history can be combined to create a profoundly deep sense of place.
