"Scenery is beautiful"?-?Library Journal

Travel to the land of legends: Macbeth, Loch Ness, and Braveheart William Wallace. From its craggy ocean shores to the mist-shrouded mountains, Scotland is a country of rugged and delicate beauty. Visit a restored Neolithic village, Hadrian's Wall, Gretna Green, Ayr, Dumfries, Glasgow, the fabled islands of Skye and Iona, plus the Shetlands, renowned for their ponies. Stop at St. Andrews, where golf was invented 800 years ago. See Edinburgh and its gala international festival of music, dance and theater.

Touring this historic, romantic and ruggedly beautiful land, from its craggy ocean shores to its North Sea islands--from its mist-shrouded mountains to its ancient cities. This is Scotland!

Embarking from the colorful Borders and Hadrian's Wall we travel to the abbys, and to Gretna Green. To Ayr, Dumfries and Culzean Castle, with its memories of General Eisenhower. And on to the Cinderella city of Glascow and Loch Lomand. To Oban, Ben Nevis, Glenfinnan and haunting Glencoe. Excursion to fabled islands - Skye, holy Iona and "Fingal's Cave" - and on to the Orkneys and the Shetlands, renowned for their loveable ponies. Search Loch Ness for "Nessie."

Follow the heroic tale of Bonnie Prince Charlie to Culloden. Tour the courses of Gleneagles, Turnberry and that Shrine of Golf, St. Andrews, where it all began some 800 years ago. Follow the beautiful Mary, Queen of Scots, from Holyroodhouse Palace in Edinburgh to her beheading. And then, return to Edinburgh for its gala international festival of music, dance and theatre, highlighted each evening by a Military Tattoo with pipes and drums.

As a finale a lone piper stands on the battlements of Edinburgh Castle, piping a plantive skirl of Scotland's pain and glory.

Review from Video Rating Guide Vol. 2 No. 1:
Offers an excellent balance of natural and man-made attractions. In each area visited, viewers are given historical and current information concerning that part of Scotland. The technical aspects of the video- photography, continuity and pacing- are of outstanding quality. Highly recommended for junior high school through adult audiences. It will be a valuable addition to school and public libraries. Four stars.
