Orkney and Shetland 01d=Lore, Nos. 1-5, 1907-8. 



In January, 1907, the Viking Club commenced a series of valuable 

 publication.s dealing with the lore of Orkney and Shetland, and the parts 

 have appeared regularly every quarter since. They are sold at 3s. each 

 at the King's Weigh House. Thomas Street, Grosvenor Square, W., and in 

 them can be found much of interest to students of archaeology and Folk 

 Lore, the various items being of peculiar interest to residents of Yorkshire 

 and Lincolnshire. The series has been carefully edited and here and there 

 are items of natural history interest. An article on ' Shipping Peats from 

 Orkney ' (p. 129), by Mr. J. T. S. Leask, gives some useful information in 

 reference to the peat industry of the island. Elsewhere (p. 91), the 

 birch tree is recorded in the peat of that area. On p. 23 is an article on 

 ' Dividing Seaweed one hundred years ago.' Tiiere are several illustra- 

 tions.
