Description
Following the success of Of Peats and Putts, this book explores how whisky and golf, ‘Scotland’s two gifts to the world’, have developed across the rest of the United Kingdom and Ireland. Again visiting nine distilleries and nine golf courses -four in both England and Ireland and one in Wales – the author discusses how these two great Scottish exports have fared outside of their native land. Many of the themes of the first book are developed; the importance of location, the role of landscape, the environment and people as well as the author’s contention that these
two popular pastimes can be seen as metaphors for the vagaries of life.
The author finds that there is always more to learn about both whisky and golf and starts to form a personal manifesto as to how each should evolve.
