Scotland's Weather

by Andrew Martin

This anthology ranges from medieval poetry to 20th-century prose and covers the Borders in springtime, skating in Victorian Edinburgh, fishermen lashed by Hebridean gales, farmers harvesting in summer heat, the Brocken Spectre and a host of other experiences of Scotland's weather. Authors include Burns, Scott, Stevenson and MacDiarmid, as well as the less well-known. The chapters are introduced by proverbs and useful words for weather.
