Allan McLean

Allan Campbell McLean (1922–1989) was a master of Scottish children’s writing. He had a deep love of the Highlands—he lived in a croft house on Skye with his wife and children for seventeen years—and had a better ear for West Highland dialogue than perhaps any other author. His most beloved children's book was The Hill of the Red Fox. He wrote several others, including The Master of Morgana, Storm Over Skye, A Sound of Trumpets and The Year of the Stranger.
