I have been looking for this book for a long time, I originally read this book many years ago, so was delighted to find it again with "Alibris". I come from the UK, and vacated many times in the beautiful Scotland, this is a wonderful story of a woman going out to the "wilds" of that country, and having to adapt to her new life. it is hilariously enchanting with the most wonderful characters.
