The recollections of folk who have come from near and far, and from a variety of backgrounds, for the berry-picking season.' … Fascinating material is presented throughout … The focus on the wide range of oral testimonies presented, mostly from a particular region of Scotland that has thus far not received in-depth attention in the wider historiography, means that the book offers important insights for the historical agenda' Scottish Archives
Ethnologist Roger Leitch started making fieldwork recordings in the early 1980s. He is best known for his The Book of Sandy Stewart which tells, through oral history and photographs, of the lives of Scottish Traveller Sandy Stewart and his family. Published in 1988, it is now a key text for ethnology students for both its content and its methodology.
