A presentation copy, inscribed by the author opposite the half title page to his cousin R. Farquharson Sharp ‘To R.F.S. with loving Birthday and new year greetings. 31st Dec Xmas/ 1st Jany 97’. Reviewed by Yeats, who only discovered the double identity not long before his death, in the December 1896 issue of the Bookman: ‘Miss Macleod has rediscovered the art of the myth-maker, and gives a visible shape to joys and sorrows and makes them seem realities and man and women illusions’. Sharp wrote ‘I was born more than a thousand years ago, in the remote region of Gaeldom known as The Hills of Dream’.
