Highlands: The by Paul Murton

Paul Murton journeys the length and breadth of the spectacularly beautiful Scottish Highlands. In addition to bringing afresh eye to popular destinations such as Glencoe, Ben Nevis, Loch Ness and the Cairngorms, he also visits someremote and little-known locations hidden off the beaten track.Throughout his travels, Paul meets a host of modern Highlanders, from caber tossers and gamekeepers to lairds topipers. With an instinct for the unusual, he uncovers some strange tales, myths and legends along the way: stories of Jacobites, clan warfare, murder and cattle rustling fill each chapter – as well as some hilarious anecdotes based on his extensive personal experience of a place he loves to call home.
