AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A grandfather's tale of a Christmas Eve spent in the south of Scotland as a commercial traveller in the 1830s. A night in an isolated inn with a fellow traveller results in a midnight struggle with an intruder - a dream caused by three helpings of Christmas pudding. Cheerful easy tale, well-sustained. (PB)
