Behind that “dour” exterior, Lindsay shows in this enjoyably serendipitous survey, there’s a more offbeat Scotland just waiting to get out. – Scotsman

Some of what she reveals is verifiable by fact, some shrouded in mystery and superstition, yet all enriches our understanding and appreciation of this fascinating country. Packed with information on curious places, bizarre happenings and perplexing oddities, Hidden Scotland is a real eye-opener that will amaze even the most erudite student of Scottish culture. It includes detailed instructions on how to get to all the places mentioned in the book, making it an indispensable guide to those keen to explore the more alternative destinations on Scotland’s tourist trail.
