Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Shepherd's Calendar. Volume I (of II)" by James Hogg is a collection published in 1829. Drawing from articles that appeared in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine since 1819, these tales capture the haunting landscape and folklore of the Scottish Borders, particularly Hogg's native Ettrick Forest. The stories range from supernatural encounters and mysterious deaths to dreams of damnation and eerie manifestations. Witches, fairies, brownies, and vengeful spirits populate these narratives of judgment, misfortune, and the uncanny forces that shape rural Scottish life.
