S. R. Crockett was one of the leading figures of the Scottish Kailyard movement, and The Dew of Their Youth is among his most atmospheric novels — a story of young love and coming of age in a Scottish community where folk memory, local legend, and Calvinist tradition are woven into the fabric of everyday life. Crockett evokes the Scottish countryside with warmth and fidelity to its oral culture.
