Highland Superstitions and Seers records the enduring beliefs, omens, and visions that shaped Highland life: from charms and second sight to the signs read in storms, dreams, and the flight of birds.

Drawn from early sources and oral tradition, this classic study offers a glimpse into the supernatural beliefs and folkloric customs of the Scottish Highlands. Through these accounts emerges a portrait of a culture attuned to unseen forces, where prophecy and intuition were as familiar as the changing weather.

First published in the early twentieth century, Highland Superstitions and Seers remains a cornerstone of Scottish folklore.
