The Tinkler-Gypsies is a novel written by Andrew McCormick in 1907. The story follows a group of traveling tinkers, or gypsies, who make their living by fixing and selling various household items. The main character is a young boy named Sandy, who is taken in by the tinklers after he runs away from home. Through his experiences with the tinklers, Sandy learns about their way of life and the challenges they face as a marginalized group in society. The novel explores themes of poverty, prejudice, and the importance of community and family. McCormick's writing style is descriptive and vivid, painting a picture of the Scottish countryside and the colorful characters that inhabit it. Overall, The Tinkler-Gypsies is a heartwarming and insightful tale that offers a glimpse into a bygone era and the lives of those who lived on the fringes of society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
