- A collection of 100 favourite Gaelic poems and songs - love poems and hymns, sea ditties and war poems, lullabies and elegies - many translated into English for the first time. Selected by Peter Mackay and Jo MacDonald, and including public nominations, these poems give a multi-layered taste of the full richness of Gaelic literature from the Middle Ages to the present day. Cruinneachadh de 100 dàn agus òran Gàidhlig de dh'iomadh seòrsa agus o iomadh linn - nam measg bàrdachd gaoil agus laoidhean, òrain mara agus òrain cogaidh, tàlaidhean agus marbhrainn. Air an taghadh le Pàdraig MacAoidh agus Jo NicDhòmhnaill, le molaidhean an t-sluaigh, tha an cruinneachadh seo a' toirt blasad de shàr-bheartas litreachas na Gàidhlig.
