Customer Reviews

Lovely

This is a quality piece of work from Thames & Hudson -- cloth over hardback boards with a blindstamped insignia on the front, sewn binding, 168 pp, color illustrations throughout on nice stock. I also like "coffee table books" that aren't ostentatiously monstrous in size. This one seems just right to me -- a square book, 2 1/2 pounds, and easy to handle.

Scottish Heaven

This is a book I look at over and over again. The photos are breathtaking and the text includes both the history and current information about each area. They did a good job of including photos of the house interiors and the beautiful Scottish landscape.

Breathtaking photos

My son and I loved reading this book. The book is not only filled with breathtaking photography, but it covers a variety of details about everyday society and life.
