Last of The Blackfolders

Jim Fraser was born and brought up in Blackfold high in the hills above Loch Ness. The Last of the Blackfolders recounts a life immersed in family stories and community folklore. The author chronicles the various characters that featured in the daily life of this crofting community. He shares these stories and legends, and sometimes strange happenings in this scattered rural community. From his Jacobite ancestor's 16th Century wedding dress and his grandmother's second sight to his family involvement in two world wars, his poignant reminiscences are engaging and moving. A delightful biography set in a bygone era never to return. " ¿........ Freda Newton MBE, Loch Ness by Jacobite
