Elizabeth (Eliza) Ross compiled this collection around 1812. This important book is the earliest unpublished collection of Highland vocal and instrumental music. It is unique in representing the wide - ranging musical repertoire known to Gaelic -speaking inhabitants of the Hebridean island of Raasay, collected at the Highland home of James MacLeod, Laird of Raasay.

There are 150 tunes in this collection, most are song airs and some 48 of the tunes are clearly instrumental dance tunes and ideal for performance on pipes or fiddle. There are 224 pages.

These instrumental tunes are now available for the first time in Bagpipe notation with a completesection in the book featuring these tunes. These were compiled and arranged by the late Dr Peter Cooke and Dr Angus MacDonald of Glenuig.
