I was blown away by this book! The writing style was elegant and beautiful. The story itself was amazing. It's told with the backdrop of a mist filled Scottish moor. The book begins with: "Perhaps the things which happened could only have happened to me. I do not know. I never heard of things like them happening to any one else. But I am not sorry they did happen." If you death is mysterous and sad to you, read this book. Although the story could have been sad - it wasn't in the least -- because of the underlying peacefulness of the belief and visions of the main character. I don't want to say too much -- that would give the story away. The sense of love, beauty and peace is something that you will take away after reading this little book. It is indeed a gem - and a short book. You can read it in one setting.

This is an old fashioned story about a high ranking Scottish chieftainess who was orphaned at birth and brought up in a huge castle on the moors. It is fascinating for what it reveals about the time and place and has nothing to do with white people as a race. Quite beautifully written by the famous author.

It was a delight to find this story by one of my favorite childhood authors. It is quite different from other stories by Hodgson, but throughly enjoyable.

Just okay
