The Highlands

From the Trossachs to Loch Ness and the Cairngorms, Paul Murton records his travels around the Grampians in this well-illustrated guide. While describing less-frequented landmarks and throwing new light on popular destinations, including the remains of the 17th-century garrison at Fort William, he also recounts aspects of their geography and history, and the inspiration the area has provided to artists and writers.

Product information
Full publisher description
Paul Murton journeys the length and breadth of the spectacularly beautiful Scottish Highlands. In addition to bringing a fresh eye to popular destinations such as Glencoe, Ben Nevis, Loch Ness and the Cairngorms, he also visits some remote 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 to pipers. 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.
