Tha cuspairean nan dAn 's a' chruinneachadh seo air an cur ann an seOrsachan a bhios a' freagair ri cinn-lA a thEid an cumail ann am mIosachan culturach nan GAidheal an Albainn Nuaidh. "MacKinnon gives us an insight into some powerful and important poetry and thoughts from a truly remarkable mind, that of a man from a distant past and a far away place, but one whose words still resonate with everyday life today. A fine and well put together piece of work, worthy of widespread attention. I recommend it to the world. Beware--it will make you think." --Angus MacLeod, Goose Cove, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia "Tha MacFhionghuin a' toirt dhuinn sealladh air cuid de bhArdachd agus smuaintean cumhachdach is cudromach bho inntinn fIor iongantach, o dhuine bho linn fad air ais an eachdraidh agus o Aite fad' air falbh, ach fear le faclan a bhios fhathast buntainneach do 'r beatha lAitheil an-diugh. Obair mhath, air a cur gu math, agus airidh air aire farsaing. Molaidh mi dhan t-saoghal i. Ach bithibh faiceallach--faodaidh i smaoineachadh domhain a thoirt oirbh!" --Aonghas MacLeOid, CObh Anndra, Ceap Breatainn, Alba Nuadh "This elegant book brings together poetry from different eras and countries but all in pursuit of the same objective--wisdom. [...] It's a great delight to read important new writing like this from Canada. One will return to this book many times to visit some of the poems. [...S]some must be pondered and others are short, neat and strike your mind like a sunbeam. Without doubt it will make you ponder many subjects, which will itself be a joy to the reader." --Dr. Angus MacLeod, Glasgow "Tha an leabhar grinn seo a' toirt ri chEile bArdachd bho dhiofar linntean is dUthchannan ach uile air tOir na h-aon ceann-uidhe--gliocas. [...] Tha e na thlachd mhOr sgrIobhadh cudromach Ur mar seo a leughadh A Canada. Thillear dhan leabhar seo iomadach Ur gus cEilidh a-rithist air cuid de na dAin. [...T]ha feadhainn a dh'fheumar cnuasachd is cuid eile a tha goirid, grinn is a bhualas nad inntinn mar ghath grEine. Gun teagamh bheir e ort meOrachadh air ioma chuspair, is thig tlachd an cois sin." --An Dr. Aonghas MacLeOid, Glaschu
