'Whisky and Scotland' is a witty, erudite and lyrical toast to uisge beatha, 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 most acclaimed early twentieth-century novelists, 'Whisky and Scotland' remains timely and relevant, encompassing nationalism, culture and what it means to be Scottish in its examination of the whisky tradition.
