Wullie Gunyun's Crack frae Clabber Raw (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916375895)

"Wullie Gunyun's Crack Frae Clabber Raw" Wullie Gunyun (William Gunning) was the pen name used by Robert L Moore for a series of over 30 short stories in Ulster-Scots that he published regularly between March 1910 and December 1911 in the "North Down Herald and County Down Independent" newspaper. 'Wullie' was both narrator and hero of these humorous stories about topical events, personalities and everyday life in Bangor and the 'hame ferm' at Ballybuttle between Newtownards and Donaghadee, from which he and wife 'Betty' had flitted to 'Clabber Raw'. This book is a companion volume to "The Leevin Tongue: An Historical Record of Ulster-Scots in County Down" by Robert Lee Moore, also edited by Anne Smyth and Philip Robinson (Ulster-Scots Academy Press, 2021). The Leevin Tongue's 3000-word glossary serves not only as a record of the Ulster-Scots language used by him in these writings, but also as a full glossary to this book.
