Subject: RE: Origins: Snows of Glencoe / Massacre of Glencoe
Thanks Jim and I think that this is such a poignant and well crafted song.
I love Glencoe and have always thought that it has such a haunting atmosphere.
The first time I camped there between the Clackhaig (not sure of spelling!) Inn and the river Coe was in 1971 and I also bought John Prebble's book 'Glencoe' at the same time (or possibly one or two years later as we went to Glencoe three years on the trot) so I will have to have a rummage about to see if I can find it.

Mr reference to castles was in response to what GUEST George Seto said earlier on this thread on 24 Aug 01.
