<p>On 15 November 1975 there was a one-day conference in the University of Glasgow on English as We Speak it in Scotland. This meeting was so successful that it was followed by another in the same place on 13 November 1976 on Scotland's Languages: the Contemporary Situation. The present volume contains revised and (in several cases) expanded versions of the papers given on these two occasions.</p>

Not only is it a fascinating insight into the life and customs of traveller people in the 1920s and 1930s, it is also a thought-provoking account of human strength and weakness, courage and cowardice, understanding and prejudice by a sensitive and entertaining writer.
