Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Transactions of the Gaelic Society of Inverness, Vol. 13: 1886-87 Since last we presented our volume to our members little has appeared in the way of books connected with the Highlands. Mr Lachlan Macbean has added a second part to his Songs Of the Gael, and a little work by Mr Cromb details the story of The Highland Brigade: Its Battles and its Heroes, in a popular and pleasing way. Though book literature is scanty, the periodical literature is even more vigorous than ever. Nether Lochaber still sends his chatty papers on Gaelic lore and northern science to the Inverness Courier, and the Northern Chronicle, Scottish High lander, and Oban Times devote much space to Gaelic and to High land history and antiquities. The Scottish Celtic Review is, we fear, extinct, but its editor, Rev. Mr Cameron, contributes his learning to the pages of the Scottish Review. The Celtic Magazine, now under the editorship of Mr Machain, an active member of our Society, has taken up a truly Celtic position, and, in combining scientific with popular matter, attempts to make up for the loss of' the Scottish Celtic Review. At the present time, Professor Mac kinnon is publishing in the Scotsman his series of Monday lectures to the Celtic class at Edinburgh on Place Names and Personal Names in Argyle. The Professor is to be congratulated on the happy way in which he places the facts of dry philologic science.
