Book Details


Table of Contents

Peter Buchan was born in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, in 1917. A fisherman's son, Peter was educated at Peterhead Academy until he left school to "go to sea" at the age of 16. He married Agnes Cowe, a local "quine" in 1940, and later had two daughters, Agnes and Alison.
Peter's first collection of poems, "Mount Pleasant" was published in 1961. He then began to write short stories portraying the middle ground in fisher life which had formerly been portrayed at the two extremes of either drunkenness or religious fanaticism and he found a large readership for his work both at home and abroad.
