Who were the first people to conquer Scotland's mountains, and why did they do it? In this ground-breaking book by a prizewinning author, Mitchell tells the story of explorations in the Highlands before mountaineering was big -- and when bandits, poachers and illic distillers used the mountains to hide in. With eight full-color illustrations by European masters and five detailed maps, this book is a must for mountaineers, historians, and those interested in the developing perception of a hidden part of Europe.
