Alexander Carmichael Books

Alexander Archibald Carmichael was a Scottish folklorist and antiquarian whose extensive collection of Highland lore and literature remains a seminal work. Over decades, he meticulously gathered traditions, natural history observations, and antiquarian data from across the Scottish Highlands, with a particular focus on the southern Outer Hebrides. His life's work, a monumental compendium of this rich cultural heritage, was published posthumously. This collection offers readers an unparalleled window into the spiritual and cultural heart of island Scotland.
