Wee Johnnie Paterson, & other humorous sketches

Description

About this book

"Wee Johnnie Paterson, & other humorous sketches" by W. Grant Stevenson is a collection of comic sketches written in the early 20th century. The pieces poke affectionate fun at everyday Scottish life—domestic muddles, social pretensions, village gossip, and civic rituals—often told in rich Scots dialect by a wry, observant narrator. Recurring figures like the long-suffering M’Cranky household and unstoppable talkers enliven situations from parties to funerals to Burns Night, with sly social satire and lighthearted misadventure.
