Desire Lines : A Scottish Odyssey - A Journey Through Her History

See all formats and editions

David R. Ross not only shows us his Scotland but he teaches us it too.

You feel as though you are on the back of his motorcycle listening to the stories of his land as you fly with him up and down the smaller roads, the 'desire lines', of Scotland.

Ross takes us off the beaten track and away from the main routes chosen for us by modern road builders.

He starts our journey in England and criss-crosses the border telling the bloody tales of the towns and villages.

His recounting of Scottish history, its myths and its legends is unapologetically and unashamedly pro-Scots.
