The Wee Mad Road: A Midlife Escape to the Scottish Highlands
The Wee Mad Roadis a funny, touching, insightful look at the ebb and flow of an isolated Highland fishing and crofting community, a place molded by forces of nature and tempered by its people. It is a road well worth traveling, if only from the comfort of your favorite armchair. --Neill Kennedy Ray,Scottish Lifemagazine, Summer 2008If you're looking for a respite from politics and war, you can lose yourself inThe Wee Mad Road...so idyllic it'll make you Highland green with envy. --Mary Ann Grossman, Saint Paul SundayPioneer Press, May 4, 2008''The Wee Mad Roadis kind of like Peter Mayle'sA Year in Provence, with rotten weather and lots of whisky.'' - Bob Gilbert,Villager, May 7, 2008''...a gloriously whimsical account of the Highland lifestyle, beautifully captured in words and illustrations -- the characters, the pub life, the ceilidhs.
