Bothy Tales is the perfect companion for The Last Hillwalker. In this collection of stories from the mountains and bothies of Scotland Burns delves deeper into his love of wild places. There are tales from his own experiences, some from his imagination, but always there is a sense of what it is to have an intimate relationship with wild places.
‘A mordant humour and a cast of friends and acquaintances enliven the stories.’ Chris Townsend
