About this Book:

This book is the engaging and colourful memoir of celebrated Scottish storyteller David Campbell. It is an exploration of the nature of love in its many guises, and David’s lifelong love of words, poetry and people.

Join David as he tells his story from childhood in wartime Fraserburgh to a holiday job with a dramatic and life-changing conclusion, through a pivotal role as a BBC radio producer at the time of the Scottish renaissance of writing, drama and folk traditions and finally to his international career as an acclaimed storyteller, mentored by celebrated tinker-traveller Duncan Williamson.
