Finlay J Macdonald (Gaelic: Fionnlagh J. MacDhòmhnaill) (1925-1987) was a Scottish journalist and radio and television producer and writer. Born and raised on Harris in the Outer Hebrides, and a native Gaelic language speaker, was an important figure in Gaelic radio and television broadcasting, founding the Gaelic Drama Association. He co-founded the quarterly Gaelic magazine ''Gairm'' in 1951 with Derick Thomson and served as its chief editor until 1964.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Finlay J. McDonald )〕 Macdonald edited ''A Journey to the Western Isles'' (1983), in which he "retraced" the 1773 tour of Scotland by Samuel Johnson and James Boswell by providing the text of Johnson's ''A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland'' along with his own commentary and numerous colour and black-and-white photographs. He was a radio and television producer. He wrote three books of memoirs that recall his childhood on the island of Harris: * ''Crowdie and Cream'' (1982) * ''Crotal and White'' (1983) * ''The Corncrake and the Lysander'' (1985).〔 These have been cited as providing a valuable insight into life in the Outer Hebrides in the inter-war years. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Finlay J.
