A first edition, first printing published by Chatto and Windus in 1941. A very good book without inscriptions. Light spotting to the text block. Small faded area to the foot of the spine, corresponding to the small chip at the foot of the good unclipped dust wrapper, which is strongly repaired internally – with small chips to the spine tips and corners.
A seminal work in Scottish literature, celebrated for its vivid portrayal of Highland life and culture. Set in the fictional Scottish estate of Glenbogle, the novel captivates readers with its colourful characters and humorous anecdotes. Mackenzie’s depiction of the Scottish landscape and its people resonates deeply, fostering a sense of pride and nostalgia. Through its enduring popularity, the novel continues to shape perceptions of Scotland and its rich heritage, leaving a lasting impact on literature and cultural identity.
