Originally published in 1908, Eve Simpsonʼs collection of folklore is an interesting artifact of its time. The author covers diverse topics of Scottish lore including fairies, regional superstitions, witches & wizards, plants & birds, the mysteries of Roman wells, the influence of Scandinavians, fishermenʼs superstitions, and fairs, festivals & funerals. Eve Blantyre Simpson (1855-1920) wrote biographies of Professor James Young Simpson, who pioneered the use of chloroform as an anesthetic, and of Robert Louis Stevenson. She lived her life in Edinburgh.
