A summertime journey is told in this book, a walk through Scotland, from the English border to the far North shore. Robin Neillands returns to Scotland and wanders north to rediscover his homeland, along the Treviot and the Tweed and the Southern Upland Way, from Kelso to Dunbar, into Edinburgh and across the Forth Bridge to Stirling and the Highlands.

He also deals with more arcane matters such as the origin of tartan, the history of golf, the contents of haggis and what the true Scotsman wears under his kilt.
