I don't know how rare or expensive the books are. I would suggest a google search or searching websites that sell old books. Hi Isbel,

(cannot read the rest.) It encourages the boys to remember to sing the old Scottish songs at the displays, and to "Remeber, you have come on a mission from Scotland; your mission is ----'friendship'" Go down with your shout of "Scotland Forever" but show yourself modest and friendly with all. I cannot remember where I got the book, probably in a junk shop in Dundee that I used to frequent every time I went home How rare do you think it is. Surprisingly it is in good shape.
