THE book for Skye's folklore is <i>Skye: The Island & Its Legends</i> by Otta F. Swire. I'm on reading it at the moment and its amazing - the author's family have lived on Skye for generations, and she had access to stories told to her by her great-grandmother that have not been recorded elsewhere. A living (or recently deceased? not sure...) oral tradition.
