Synopsis
Scotland has always been a popular destination with American visitors, who are attracted by the dramatic scenery, warm hospitality, the finest malt whiskies, and world-renowned golf courses. Many also come to trace ancestors and to investigate the history and traditions of the clans. Information on all this and more can be found in this 7th edition of the Cadogan guide to Scotland. The author guides readers on a tour through Scotland region by region, taking in ghost-spotting at Glamis Castle, a stroll in the celestial gardens at Finlaystone, a chilly swim in the waters of Loch Ness, and a visit to the hill forts and stone circles of Perthshire. Fully revised and updated, the guide includes color photographs, comprehensive maps, travel information and the most up-to-the-minute listings, which will help readers choose between the splendor of Gleneagles and the warmth of a cozy bed and breakfast for a genuine local experience.

From the Back Cover
Scotland is a country that conjures up a thousand images but is full of surprises too. Its stunning scenery of lochs, islands, craggy hilltops and green valleys is ideal for head-clearing hikes. Historic Scotland boasts ancient castles laden with legends and bloody memories of revolt and revenge, while the vibrant cities of modern Scotland, like Glasgow and Edinburgh, combine history and tradition with a new energy, seen in a buzzing youth scene, stylish restaurants and some of Europe's most innovative arts festivals. To top it off, you can eat loch-fresh salmon and organic Aberdeen Angus steaks, sample whisky from more than one hundred distilleries, and tee off on some of the world's best golf courses.This guide includes practical travel advice; over 850 hand-picked places to stay; over 800 restaurants, bars & cafes; 25 maps; stunning color photography and touring map sections; essential information on the best loch - and sea-fishing locations. (5 1/2 x 8 1/2, 618 pages, color photos, maps, illustrations)
