Thank you BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for the eARC of Scotland: The Storyteller's Photo Guide! All opinions in this review are my own.
While mainly geared to photography enthusiasts, this guide is an excellent introduction to all of the must-see places in Scotland! I liked the written adventures that accompanied each place, but since it is described as a "photo guide" I thought there would be more photos than text. The photos are stunning and I just wanted more! Overall, this guide brought back great memories of our trip to Scotland and provided new places to explore for our next trip!

Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for this ARC.
Wow. This is the most unique and comprehensive guide for Scotland I have ever seen!
It is chock full of gorgeous photographs and the most brilliant advice about photography but what sets it apart is that it presents almost like a novel - the quirky story of Joan and Brian travelling through Scotland, hunting the Traveller's Mark.
Every location is described with photo potential, difficulty of terrain, best time to visit, a 'did you know' bonmot and even parking info. It is hugely helpful and not just a 'best of Scotland' type of book!
There are photography tips galore, a section on Scottish words and phrases and even a guide to sustainable travel and being vegan in Scotland.
With 984 pages it has Outlander dimensions but you don't need to read it chronologically. It's fantastic for dipping in and out depending on where in Scotland you plan to travel. I know I will use this extensively on my next trip!
