""Scenes and Legends of the North of Scotland"" is a book written by Hugh Miller, which provides a detailed account of the traditional history of Cromarty, a town in the north of Scotland. The book is divided into two parts: the first part describes the natural scenery, geology, and archaeology of the region, while the second part delves into the legends, folklore, and traditions of the area. The author, Hugh Miller, was a Scottish geologist and writer who was born and raised in Cromarty. He was known for his keen observations of the natural world, and his ability to blend scientific knowledge with local folklore and mythology. In this book, Miller takes the reader on a journey through the rugged landscapes, dramatic cliffs, and ancient ruins of the north of Scotland. He describes the geological formations of the area, including the famous Old Red Sandstone, and explains how they were formed over millions of years. He also explores the history of the region, from the Picts and Vikings to the Scottish Wars of Independence. The second half of the book is devoted to the legends and traditions of Cromarty. Miller recounts stories of witches and fairies, sea monsters and ghosts, and other supernatural beings that were said to inhabit the area. He also describes the customs and beliefs of the local people, including their superstitions and rituals. Overall, ""Scenes and Legends of the North of Scotland"" is a fascinating exploration of the natural and cultural history of a unique region. Miller's vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling make this book a must-read for anyone interested in Scottish folklore, geology, or history.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
