This witty and diverting book, from musician and whisky expert
Robin Laing, captivates the reader with folklore and history
reflecting aspects of Islay life, all relating back to whisky.
Simultaneously entertaining, comforting and informative, Laing uses
narrative and lyric to examine the relationship between the
islanders of Islay and whisky. When grouped together as a whole,
the various anecdotes, poems and songs beautifully illustrate the
importance that whisky plays in the lives of the people of Islay,
but also of how it has shaped their history.
