The Hebridean Island of Scotland stretch out into the Atlantic, immense expanses of barren, treeless and rocky terrain. The Celtic Scholar Alexander Carmichael, spent a lifetime collecting the prayers, the songs, and the poetry of these remarkable people who live here. This writer has compiled a one volume anthology from Carmichael's great work, Carmina Gadelica, an unrivalled treasury of Celtic spirituality, and introduces the Celtic people to a wider audience. Beautifully illustrated with intricate line drawings based on Celtic art, The Celtic Vision is a book for all seasons.
