Title: Sprigs o' heather
Description: This is a beautiful little book containing many gentle poems full of insight and sentiment from a simple yet intelligent scot in love with his brethren and his country.

The author was my fathers uncle and he was made blind before writing, yet recalls such vivid visual imagery through his poetry.

My father recently passed away and I hold a worn copy of this book close to my heart.
