'The idea behind it is brilliant... an absolutely riveting journey through time and space' -- Roger Cox * The Scotsman * 'A treasure trove for those who cherish Scotland' * Press and Journal * 'A surprising and exciting book and one we'd highly recommend to anyone with an interest in this country of ours and its history' -- Ken Lussey * Undiscovered Scotland * 'Leaving behind the well-worn paths to explore the lost, authentic, unfiltered shadows of our past, he uncovers a landscape that is full of stories. Wild histories that are all around us, just waiting to be noticed' * Oban Times * 'Wild History is an invitation to see for oneself just how much of the past still lives with us in the present' * Edinburgh Life * 'There are some books you can't put down and Wild History is Exhibit A in that category... Crawford's curiosity is the engine of this historical travelogue but his nicely informal and homely writing style is the grease that lubricates the wheels... highly recommended' * Scottish Field * 'An excellent book full of awe-inspiring places to discover off the beaten track; you may never look at Scotland's landscape in the same way' * Outdoor Photography Magazine *
