Gairm was a Scottish Gaelic language quarterly magazine founded in 1951 by Derick Thomson, and Finlay J. MacDonald (Fionnlagh Domhnallach). Its first issue was published in Autumn 1952. MacDonald served as an editor until 1964; Thomson remained present for decades until it ceased publication in 2004, producing just over 200 issues in total.[1][2] It attracted some important authors such as Sorley MacLean, Iain Crichton Smith, George Campbell Hay, and Domhnall MacAmhlaigh.[2]

An index of articles in Gairm can be found on the Am Baile website using their newspaper index search.
