The Cairngorms, Scene & Unseen

First published in 1989, Syd Scroggie's classic has stood the test of time as one of the best original accounts of Scotland's Bothy culture.
A Lovat Scout, Syd was a true man of the hills and an 'inveterate scribbler'. Despite losing his sight and one leg a fortnight before the end of the Second World War, he returned to the Scottish mountains with companions and summited over 600 hills well into his 80s. Syd is frequently quoted ass saying 'I can do without my eyes but I can't do without my mountains,' and his rich vivid description of his beloved Cairngorms speak of an insight that transcends the corporeal.With a foreword by the legendary Tom Weir, this eloquent and inspirational book is a portrait of forbearance and endurance and will appeal to anyone with an interest in the stories and history of Scottish mountain culture.
