Annotation

A commentary, mostly positive, on Scottish nationalism but with a sense that it has been made acceptable. For example, while eighty percent of literature produced in Scotland was in “new standard Gaelic, which was approved by the Scottish Academy of Letters in 1969” (1), but older Gaelic literature, mostly by poets, is still published. See also his Albyn or Scotland in the Future. By C. M. Grieve [pseud.]. London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co./New York: E. P. Dutton & Co., 1927, a volume in the To-day and Tomorrow series, which deplores current conditions and has little on the future.
