Around 1885, Alfred Barnard was secretary of Harper's Weekly
Gazette, a journal dedicated to the wine and spirit trade. In order
to provide his readers with the history and descriptions of the
whisky-making process, Barnard decided to visit all distilleries in
Scotland, England and Ireland. Accompanied by friends, he visited
over 150 distilleries. The names found in his reports still excite
the dedicated whisky connoisseur today, as well as others whose
fame has faded since the end of the 19th century. The appeal of
Barnard's book lies not only in the technical descriptions of each
distillery's processes, but also in the colourful descriptions of
his journeys, brimming with historical colour and detail. A
superbly illustrated facsimile edition, with over 200 engravings,
this book is a complete guide to the origins of Scotland's national
drink, as well as a lively picture of life and travel in the
Victorian age.
