Bag om Whisky and Scotland
'One of the most important Scottish writers of the twentieth century' Times Literary SupplementThis beautiful gift edition of Whisky and Scotland is a witty, erudite and lyrical toast to uisgebeatha, the Celt's 'water of life'. Taking readers on a journey through the highlands of Scotland, it describes the traditional techniques whereby barley grains become an amber spirit. Written by one of Scotland's leading twentieth century novelists, Neil M. Gunn, Whisky and Scotland remains timely and relevant, encompassing nationalism, culture and what it means to be Scottish in its examination of the whisky tradition. A classic since its original publication in 1935, Whisky and Scotland will enlighten and entertain all who share the author's delight in a brew that recalls 'the world of hills and glens, of raging elements, of shelter, of divine ease'.
