Cool delivery! 'Fowrsom Reel', poetry by John Kincaid, George Todd, F J Anderson and Thurso Berwick (1949).
Dedicated to the socialist John Maclean, Hugh MacDiarmid intros the collection as part of a new Scottish poetry 'concerned with the problems of our people, with current political issues, with anti-Imperialism and anti-militarism, with resistance to Fascism, and the support of Republican Spain and the Soviet Union'.
Bonus: it's not even that grubby!

The Sparks are flying!
Thanks to everyone that came out tonight, and to Niall for hosting us on behalf of the University.
Also to the Gaelic Books Council and Francis Boutle Publishers - Clive is very much our Caraid nan Gàidheal.
Great to see my old Dons and such a healthy turnout of Edinburgh Gaels!
But most of all, I love my talented pals. Babs, Martin, Mary Ann, Niall and Peter - you were all just magical.
More to come!
