Publisher's Synopsis
The Outlander books of Diana Gabaldon (and the TV series by Ron B. Moore) awakened tens of millions of readers and viewers to the alluring romantic and sexual mores of historical Scotland, both fascinating and titillating in their awkward truce between traditional social order and the lusty spirit of the Highlands. But the real stories are just as fascinating, just as titillating, and packed with as much romance, humor and tragedy as Gabaldon's saga. This collection of 40 tales from Scotland's past journeys through the full range of Scottish intrigues of the heart and flesh, from the sex magic of the Druids to the royal courtships of Scotland's kings and queens, from the raucous adventures of Robert Burns to the sexual repressions of the Reformation. Steeped in history but seasoned with art and folklore, it's a trip through time worthy of Claire and Jamie.
