Christmas Stories gathers together all the short stories that he wrote each Christmas for The Herald and/or The Tablet during the 1970s and early 80s.

But every single one of them is a finely crafted jewel, every one of them a resonance of that totally original voice that can only be that of Mackay Brown.
