Book Reviews of The Ultimate Guide to Being Scottish
Book Review: Humourous, irreverant, and thoroughly entertaining
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased this an an adjunct for a family Robert Burns Night, just to have some added factoids. Its a volume that everyone with a plaid heritage, or anyone related to one should own, savor, and explains all with a wink of the eye and a wee doech to boot. Absolutely splendid as a read.
