Sassenach's Survival Guide to the Scottish Highlands

Ant and Shirley set out for the Promised Land, that mythical, romantic, crime-free wilderness that stretches far away at the northern tip of the British Isles. And they found it. But after driving across the border as members of the human race they were shocked to arrive in the Highlands as that most loathsome of creatures: ‘White Settlers’.

Are you thinking of moving north of the order? Are you thinking of touring the Highlands? Well, before you slip on your kilt and order the haggis, I advise you to read this book. Through a combination of urban myths, personal anecdotes and 28 cheeky checklists, this book reviews all aspects of life in the Highlands and uncovers an astounding truth: the Scots really do hate the English!

Ant Massey didn’t deliberately set out to offend the Celts but with tongue firmly in cheek, this survival guide unashamedly, and for all of the wrong reasons, fans the flames of Scottish independence. Forget Lonely Planet and all those other guidebooks; this one lifts the lid and exposes what the Highlanders are really like on their home turf.
