First (and likely only) edition. 48pp. Laminated card covers. Colour and monochrome illustrations. A spiral of trees at the heart of the Borgie woodland in north west Sutherland brings to life the ancient Gaelic tree alphabet. This volume explores the origins of the alphabet, tells of the traditional significance of each tree in Gaelic culture and the practical uses that Highlanders have made of the timber and alphabet. Beautifully illustrated, with some of the images being the work of children at schools in Altnaharra, Bettyhill, Melvich and Tongue. Oblong format.
