  'In Scottish Poems , John Rice takes us on an exhilarating whistle-stop tour, the poets of his choice being a refreshing and stimulating mix of the familiar and the unexpected. The vitality and diversity of their voices (English, Scots and Gaelic, from the Borders to Shetland and the Western Isles) reflect that of the land they live in, and whet the appetite for more.' - Stewart Conn, poet and playwright. 'My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here; My heart's in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer; A-chasing the wild-deer and following the roe, My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go.' - Robert Burns.
