A Brooklyn family buys a stone cottage beside a loch in Scotland and summers in the lonely hills.
Witty and passionate...the little society scattered across the lonely hills is rightly set against its ancient and recent history...this wise book...entertainingly observant...Perthshire winds, voices, birdsong, silences...weeks spent in reading, (no TV, no radio)
