Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Jessie's Journey is an unforgettable account of a way of life that has all but vanished. It is the story of Jessie, her seven sisters and their unconventional childhood roaming the country in an old blue Bedford bus. In this moving, honest and heart-warming memoir, Jess describes her life among an extraordinary people and their never-ending struggle to survive as free nomads. Jessie's parents lacked material wealth, but they clung to 'the richness that comes from freedom, a traveller's freedom.' Living as they did on the edge of respectable society, prejudice was never far away, but their world was brimming with laughter, love and adventure. Earning their living hay-stacking, beach-combing, ragging, midden-raking, berry-picking, fortune-telling and hawking, Jessie and her family travelled the length and breadth of Scotland and beyond. Reflecting on the friendships, feuds, trials and tribulations of her boisterous family, Jess recalls a magical childhood, surrounded by the sea spray, birch woods and wild places of a Scotland few of us will ever know.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The historic canal system between Edinburgh and Glasgow has recently been upgraded to a major area for tourism and recreation. The Millenium Link project has joined the Union Canal with the Forth and Clyde Canal through the spectacular Falkirk Wheel. The Wheel, the world's first and only rotating boat lift, is now one of the leading visitor attractions in Britain. The canals themselves were the cutting-edge technology of their day in the great age of the Industrial Revolution. In this guide, Hamish Brown describes their extraordinary history, illustrating it with rare archive pictures from his own collection. Nowadays, the canals provide endless opportunities for recreation, whether on the water, enjoying the wildlife, strolling along the towpaths for an hour or two or taking on the challenge of walking city to city over several days. Illustrated in colour throughout, and with detailed maps of every section of the canals, this guide shows you how to make the most of a swathe of rural tranquility in the heart of lowland Scotland.

The famous views of towns, castles, cathedrals and abbeys are presented here in their original form, together with some comparative shots, later reworkings and other, little-known drawings.

The book gives a rounded picture of Slezer's career and working methods plus the full story of his celebrated Theatrum Scotiae (1693). The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The Three Chimneys on the Isle of Skye is one of the world's finest restaurants. Confirmation of its status came earlier this year when the respected The Restaurant magazine placed it at number 28 in its annual survey of the World's Top 50 restaurants. The Three Chimneys was the only Scottish restaurant on the list, and one of only five in the UK. Award-winning chef Shirley Spear and her husband Eddie have come a long way since they upped sticks from London almost 20 years ago and headed north with a dream of starting their own restaurant in a converted croft on the Isle of Syke. Now Shirley has drawn on her experiences to put together a visually stunning and highly readable book. A winning combination of recipes, culinary essays, personal anecdotes and over 100 evocative images - of Skye, its produce and Shirley's mouth-watering creations - this is more than just a cookery book. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This publication brings together a selection of photographs and drawings depicting the rich built heritage of Dundee. The illustrations, many of which appeared in an exhibition organized to celebrate Dundee's 1991 octocentenary celebrations, have been drawn mainly from the collections of the National Monuments Record of Scotland, an extensive national archive of Scotland's historic buildings and archaeological monuments administered by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland. Dundee has long been renowned as the home of the jute industry in Britain, an association which has endowed the city with much impressive industrial architecture, best symbolized by the remains of Camperdown works, with its lofty brick chimney, and by the jute palace homes of the magnates of the industry. The city has had a long and occasionally turbulent history, however, which is reflected in a wide and distinctive variety of buildings, ranging from castles and churches to tenements and office blocks, and its riverside setting has bequeathed a legacy of maritime industries and large bridges. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Allan Pinkerton is famous as the founder of the detective agency that still bears his name. What is less well known is that he was a prolific author who can lay claim to being one of the originators of the 'private eye' genre. Even the phrase 'private eye' can find its roots in the agency's trademark: a large, all-seeing eye with the slogan 'We Never Sleep.'In The Pinkerton Casebook, Victorian crime expert Bruce Durie has gathered together the best of Pinkerton's writings, including accounts of how he foiled an attempt on the life of President Abraham Lincoln, his infiltration of the notorious Molly Maguires gang, and his dogged pursuit of Frank and Jesse James.Pinkerton was born in Glasgow in 1819. Involved as a young man in radical politics, he was forced to emigrate to America in 1842. The Pinkerton Casebook contains his account of his very first case, which came about when he stumbled upon a gang of counterfeiters in a small, rural settlement of Scottish immigrants in Dundee, Illinois.The books Pinkerton published in his lifetime were hugely popular, influencing and inspiring authors such as Arthur Conan Doyle and Mark Twain. Dashiell Hammett worked as a Pinkerton agent before he became a writer in the detective genre himself. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
