'A remarkable, highly readable yet scholarly book' -- Jim Corrigan * Faith and Freedom * 'Fascinating, provocative and, occasionally, very funny' -- Joanna Kavenna * Times Literary Supplement * 'One of the most fascinating books I've read for a long while, if maddeningly hard to categorise' -- David Robinson * Scotsman * 'Poacher's Pilgrimage is a book full of generosity, spry in its thinking and detailed in its observations' * Scotland on Sunday * 'The language is almost poetic, reflecting the writer's artistic gifts and his understanding of Celtic and pre-Celtic culture' -- David Thomson * Press & Journal (book of the week) * 'His honesty is humbling ... he never skirts a question. He is on a mission, and having been Scotland's first professor of human ecology, he seems at times prophetic' -- Polly Pullar * Scottish Field * 'If this sounds more serious than a Presbyterian church service, there is great fun to be found in Poacher's Pilgrimage. McIntosh is an entertaining subversive' * The National *
