A gem of shinty history...

Have a look at this gem of shinty history.

It comes from the the Calum Maclean Project, based at the department of Celtic and Scottish Studies, University of Edinburgh. The project centres upon the collected materials of Calum I. Maclean (1915-1960).

On July 27, 1952, Maclean recorded a short anecdote in English from Donald MacDonald, then aged 75, who stayed in Laggan, Badenoch about New Year shinty in the district.
