Meer over het boek

The Scottish Highlands, characterized by their majestic mountains and deep glens, remained largely untouched by outsiders until the 18th century. The region's tumultuous history includes the rise of the Celtic Church on Iona and the fierce clan conflicts. Following the defeat of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the Highlands transitioned from a land of conflict to one celebrated for its natural beauty. The 19th century saw a surge in tourism, fueled by literary figures and royal admiration, even as local communities faced displacement due to agricultural reforms.
