Beautifully illustrated story of Deerhound Luath. Set in Rob Roy country.

Why would a deerhound and a tree sparrow join forces in the land of Rob Roy MacGregor? What is the ancient and troubling secret trapped in a mountainside? What is the mystery of the slow red squirrels of Balquhidder?

Neil Campbell MacArthur’s robust illustrations and strongly traditional storytelling crackle like a good campfire. The eccentric, endearing relationship of hound and bird is countered by a darker strain of clansmen and great pipers. The Hound’s Tale is an adventure of rare charm for the young at heart of all ages.
