Sunshine And Haar: Some Further Glimpses Of Life At Barncraig is a book written by Gabriel Setoun and published in 1896. The book is a collection of short stories set in the fictional Scottish village of Barncraig. The stories explore the lives of the villagers and their experiences with love, loss, and the challenges of daily life. The title of the book refers to the two weather conditions that are common in Scotland - sunshine and haar, which is a type of mist that rolls in from the sea. The author uses these weather conditions as metaphors for the ups and downs of life that the characters in the stories experience.The book is a sequel to Setoun’s earlier work, Barncraig: A Book Of Village Life, and features many of the same characters. However, it can also be read as a standalone work.Overall, Sunshine And Haar: Some Further Glimpses Of Life At Barncraig is a charming and insightful look at rural Scottish life in the late 19th century. It offers a glimpse into a world that is both familiar and foreign, and is sure to delight readers who enjoy stories of small-town life and human relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
