Publisher's Summary

The Wow O’ Rivven is a great example of George McDonald's wonderful storytelling. Rivven is Ruthven, Aberdeenshire, and The "Wow o Rivven" refers to the local church bell. The hero of the story is the old "fool", also known as "colonel" who is buried near to the old bell.

A Great Bedtime Story

Just short enough to enjoy in one sitting, good story and excellent reading to honour the language in which it was written.
Nice to know of another of MacDonald's stories.
