Overview

Stomping the quintessential Highlands from Inverness to Skye and risking frozen extremities to reach breathtaking Hebridean islands, Charles Jennings discovers a land of awe-inspiring beauty. Contemplating whether his great grandfather's legacy qualifies him to shed a tear at the sound of bagpipes, Jennings compares the elegance of Edinbugh with the industrial action of Aberdeen, risks a pint in Kelvinside, and sinks into the peaty bogs of Mull.

Slick,arrogant,easy,shallow,useless junk.

Its a hoot.

Sunday Telegraph

A virulently,hilariously anti–Scottish polemic… merciless debunking… in the Bill Bryson mould.
