The ‘hundred and one tales’ of this volume are a ‘short-cut’ to the principal changes, events and personalities that have over thousands of years formed the Orkney that we know today. This is equally a tribute to the archaeological digs, writings, library archives and museum collections that illuminate the story of Orkney.
Bryce Wilson, a graduate of Gray’s School of Art in Aberdeen, spent most of his working life as Museums Officer with Orkney Islands Council. He continues to promote Orkney history and culture from his native Stromness.
