Product Description


By John Nicolson.


14 pages. Downloadable pdf.  


This is a discussion of the folktales of the Shetland Islands, which combine Viking, Pictish, and later Scottish influences. The folktales here are different from those of the mainland, but there nonetheless are trolls who steal an unattended leg of mutton.There are tales of cows being milked dry by fairy folk, and other mysterious and wondrous things which happen to the unsuspecting human folk when they defy or ignore the wee people.
