About this book
'One of the most important Scottish writers of the twentieth century' TLS
A beautiful celebration of Scottish malt whisky and the illustrious lands that produce it
A classic since its original publication in 1935, Whisky and Scotland will enlighten and entertain all who delight in the amber spirit that evokes 'the world of hills and glens, of raging elements, of shelter, of divine ease'.
Whisky and Scotland takes us on a journey through the Highlands of Scotland to uncover the traditional techniques whereby barley grains become liquid gold. Written by one of Scotland's most acclaimed early twentieth-century writers, Whisky and Scotland examines whisky history, production and tradition that remains unchanged after hundreds of years. Witty and informative, this is Neil M. Gunn's lyrical toast to uisge beatha, the Celtic 'water of life'.
