I was then eighteen years old, I am now over eighty six; and the straits of Time have widened and widened with every year, so that many things appear to have been carried away into forgetfulness by the stress and flow of full waters. They are only lying in out of the way corners of consciousness, and can easily be recalled by some word that has the potency of a spell over them.

  7. It was interesting to note the effect of the far-off Crimean War on the people of the Orkney Islands. It was also interesting to note the religious conflicts that simmered among the Protestants, and how the people of the Orkneys often hearkened back to non-Christian beliefs with superstitions about henge stones, and visits from dead family members. I am always looking for books set in Orkney, and this one did have that setting.
