Campbell's second volume: second sight as the Gaelic actually names it — the two sights — the taibhsear and the taibhs, the clay corpse stuck with pins, witches in the shape of hares, Hugh of the Little Head riding for the Maclaines, and the two poltergeist cases he reports in full and then declines to believe.
