Om denne bog

Did You Know?

  • No one knows the origin of the word Hogmanay.

  • Until late in the twentieth century, Hogmanay was celebrated on two distinct dates, twelve days apart.

  • On the island of Islay, it was a Hogmanay custom to predict who you would marry by throwing fish at the wall.

  • There is more to Hogmanay than fireworks – firstfooting, Guisers, thiggers, mass ball games, clavies and the Dingwall Crate all feature within. Oh, and don’t forget to look out for the Trows!

The Little Book of Hogmanay is a feast of information exploring the history, folklore, tales, food, drink and traditions of Hogmanay, from its pagan roots to its celebratory present.

Whether you need a user’s guide or an anthology of entertainment, The Little Book of Hogmanay will tell you all you ever wanted to know about Scotland’s most widely and wildly celebrated festival.
