‘ . . . the dear, dear Highlands . . . There is a great peculiarity about the Highlands and the Highlanders; and they are such a chivalrous, fine, active people’ – Queen Victoria
After the huge success of 1314 And All That, Scoular Anderson turns his inimitable style to the Highlands, focusing on key areas of Highland history from the earliest times to the present day. He also offers insights into some unique facets of Highland life, such as clanship, sheep, shinty and whisky. Up-to-date and authoritatively researched, this book is a short, sharp and humorous introduction for anyone who needs to sort out their Butt of Lewis from their Paps of Jura.
Scoular Anderson lives in Dunoon and is one of Scotland’s best-known and best-loved children’s authors and illustrators. He has been published widely by many UK publishers and makes regular appearances at book festivals and children’s events.
