About the Author
Williams, some of whose ancestors are Scots, Welsh, and Irish, has long found interest in Celtic legends. It was while visiting the Western Isles of Scotland-a stay enhanced by ceilidhs(informal parties) in crofter cottages and inns-that the author discovered the story of the Highland Clearances and resolved to make the tale more widely known.
