A seasonal meander through the wilds of Scotland.

'If Clanlands was a gentle road trip through Scotland, this almanac is a top down, pedal to the metal up and down odyssey through the many byways of a Scottish year. An invitation to anyone who picks up the book to join us on a crazy camper van exploration over 12 glorious, whisky fuelled months. Mountains, battles, famous (and infamous) Scots, the alarming competitiveness of Men in Kilts, clans, feuds, flora, fauna, with a healthy sprinkling of embarrassing personal reminiscences thrown in. Much is explored, all is shared. It is a camper van cornucopia of all things Alba'.

From First Footing to Samhain, Fringe Festival follies to whisky lore, Sam & Graham guide readers through a year of Scottish legends, traditions, historical and contemporary events, sharing personal stories and tips as only these two chalk-and-cheese friends can.

As entertaining as it is practical, The Clanlands Almanac is a light-hearted education in Scottish history and culture, told through the eyes of two passionate Scotsmen. The perfect escapist guide, The Clanlands Almanac is intended as a starting point for your own Scottish discoveries.

The best of the best

These 2 men have a strange aura when they are doing any kind of project together. It's a combination of true friendship, which shows through at every moment, thorough knowledge of each others flaws, and a genuine joy when revealing said flaws to the world. Month by month the tell you historical truths aboutthe clans, their peckish personalitiesand the resultant skirmishes and wars that followed. They talk about the beautiful scenery as well as the ancient architecture that are found throughout the Scottish Highlands. All of this is very enlightening and enjoyable to read, but the real gem lies in their wit. I have never picked up this book to read a few chapters without, at some point, breaking out with roars of laughter. As a case in point April has a section on the annual hunting of haggis which is worth the entire book. I loved reading it and will probably reread it at least once when I need a good laugh from 2 very interesting and funny men.

Easy to read but difficult to imagine that the majority of material was written by M and H and not by the chamber of commerce or tourism. Entertaining and funny, recommend.

As my background on both parents side is Scottish and loving Outlander, I love to learn more about Scotland and read the back and forth humour and love between Heughan and McTavish. This book delivers all of that and more. A must read for fans of Outlander and those interested in Scotland.

It’s like”being a fly on the wall” with Sam and Graham’s travels

Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2022

Hard to put down doesn’t begin to describe Clanlands Almanac (just like their 1st book,Clanlands).Don’t start reading unless you have an entire afternoon free...you will find you’re halfways through their book before you realize it.You will laugh at Sam’s antics(at Graham’s expense) and you will feel as if you are having a once-in-a-lifetime trip through Scotland...and learning about their beloved homeland at the same time.

Happy customer.

Was part of my mums Christmas presents among others as she had the other book before this one, she seems happy with it, delivery was on time and we'll tracked, packaging could have been a bit better but was still OK, cost was decent.
Even better that it's a hardback version as it's easier for my mum to hold due to difficulties with her arms and hands.

Excellent follow up to Clanlands

Another enjoyable romp through the Clanlands with Sam and Graham, written with the same wit and humour as Clanlands. Listening on Audible also adds to the experience.

pity about the printing errors

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 17, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is a brillaintly witty book, and easy to read. It had me in stitches at times, and the banter between Sam and Graham was brilliant. At times it almost felt as though they were in the room with you, sipping their whisky. However it was rather spoilt for me by the number of printing errors. I counted 31 in its 352 pages, which is a lot. Amazon customer
