Synopsis

Two friends. One campervan. And plenty of whisky.

This is the hilarious true story of a Scottish adventure like no other.

With a foreword by Diana Gabaldon.

When Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish hit the road, they are not following a script. They are chasing adventure. Armed with a campervan, a shared history and plenty of curiosity, they set out to explore the Scotland that lies beyond the clichés.

What follows is a fast moving, whisky fuelled journey through dramatic landscapes and untold stories. They battle the elements on windswept coastlines, cross remote Highland glens and dive headfirst into the legends that shaped a nation. From bloody clan warfare to stirring poetry and centuries old traditions, every stop reveals a new side of Scotland.

But the real story unfolds between them. Cramped conditions, unexpected detours and a fair share of chaos push their friendship to its limits, and then strengthen it in ways neither expected.

Packed with humour, history and unforgettable moments, this is Scotland at full throttle. Bold, beautiful and alive. A journey that will leave you wanting more.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Goodreads review by Sue on December 02, 2020

IMHO, all readers (and fans) MUST have the audio accompaniment in order to fully appreciate the humor, inflections, & accents! I read along whilst listening in order to visually remember the travel locations and track the Gaelic terms, but the narration is the draw of this manly adventure between Sa......more

Este era el libro que necesitaba para revivir el amor y la nostalgia tan intensa que siento cuando pienso en Escocia. Muchas personas me dicen que exagero un montón, pero les juro que desde que conocí ese país en el 2019 no he podido sacármelo de la cabeza y del corazón. Escocia es un lugar tan mági......more

I like a hot Scottish accent as much as the next person & was considering this as a xmas gift for someone so thought I'd give the audiobook a spin. Oh man... these two come off as INSUFFERABLE douchebags. Maybe the smarmy, self-important tone isn't as obvious in print, but I'm currently 2/3 through......more

Goodreads review by Annie on November 04, 2020

Forget Jamie and Claire, it’s Sam and Graham that have the real chemistry. These two were clearly having the time of their lives galavanting about the countryside and taking the piss out of each other. It really made for a fun read and has me aching to return to Scotland - the home of my soul, the l......more

There adventures sounded like a lot of fun. And it was fascinating to hear about their Scottish ancestry.......more
