I'm reading the first part of Timothy Neat's biography "Hamish Henderson - The Making of The Poet 1919-1953", whilst watching Wendy Alexander's press conference on BBC News 24. OK not exactly simultaneously... Try a Google search for Hamish Henderson & Wendy Alexander - Hamish 13,000, Wendy 113,000. Well, I can't address the obvious imbalance (IMHO) but here's an attempt to aggregate some of the better Hamish stuff out there.- Interview in Textualities
- Extract from The Making of the Poet from Birlinn
- Writing Scotland (BBC)
- The Guardian Obituary
- Dick Gaughan's Appreciation (with songs links)
- Feature article in Hi-Arts, December 2007
- Review of A' The Bairns o' Adam in The Living Tradition
- Feature article in The Living Tradition April/May 1999
- Obituary from The Citizen
- Obituary in The Daily Telegraph
- Mike Russell MSP on Hamish
- The School of Scottish Studies
- Wikipedia entry
And the connection with the previous post? Shame on you. Try this...
