Another fascinating book is The Last Stronghold, detailing Scottish Gaelic traditions in the Codroy Valley of southwest Newfoundland. It reminds us that all the island's musical tradition doesn't hark back to Ireland. Researched and written in the 1980s by Margaret Bennett, formerly of the School of Scottish Studies, (who is known to many in the U.S. through her singing tours and teaching) the book devotes a chapter to "We Worked and We Sang" and concerns itself with waulking songs and ceilidh music.
