McCallum, Neil. IT'S AN OLD SCOTTISH CUSTOM. London: Dennis Dobson, (1951). (1951). Good - 8vo, red cloth (bottom corners bumped; crease to bottom edge of rear cover) titled in black, in dw (lightly soiled; top edges of flaps creased; price-clipped). 192 pp. (light foxing to rear endpaper & last few pages of text). B&W head-pieces. Good in very good dw. First edition. Scotland, writes the author in his Foreword "is contemporary and ancient, and therein is its greatest fascination....A cigarette lit under a neon sign can be stubbed on a tumulus. That is part of the flavour of Scotland. In the country that developed steam power, wireless telegraphy, modern surgery and radar, there is still, in outlying parts, a Stone Age technique of living, a survival of practices and superstitions which make prehistoric man walk hand in hand with the turbo-jet engineer."
