Golf, sheep, whiskey, castles, wild coastlines, and of course bagpipes are on the routes marked out for tourists. Before detailing specific cities and areas, chapters look at such aspects as history, clans and tartans, festivals, food and eating out, public transport, and where to stay. Stupendous color photographs comfort readers who will never actually get there. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
