The Old Man Of Lochnagar by Prince Charles is a collectible British picture book that pairs royal storytelling with playful Highland whimsy. First published in 1980, this charming children’s fantasy follows a mysterious hermit living in the crags above Balmoral, making it a unique addition to royal memorabilia and bedtime-reading shelves alike.

Illustrator Sir Hugh Casson’s lively watercolors fill every spread, giving young readers plenty to discover during read-aloud sessions. The hardcover edition offered here carries a gift inscription on the front endpaper, adding a personal touch without claiming royal authograph status.

Condition notes: the dust jacket shows light edge scuffs and is price-clipped, while faint foxing appears on the inner boards and early leaves; pages remain crisp, unmarked, and tightly bound. From a smoke-free home, this antiquarian copy is ready for collectors, teachers, or parents seeking a nostalgic slice of royal literary history.
