Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Colin Walker, an assiduous collector of Scottish proverbs, offers a treary of the most common ones he has found to date, together with epigrams and metaphors that show the same folk-genius at work in the some lovely medium of Gaelicized English. For the reader's convenience, Walker has arranged the sayings in alphabetical order by first words, and provided a glossary of words the average English speaker is not likely to know.
