  Join Clarissa on a culinary journey through Scotland's past. Authentic recipes are brought to life with anecdotes and artefacts from history. Discover the dishes relished by Romans and royalty, authors and poets, highlanders and islanders, and see just how well our ancestors ate. Clarissa says in her Introduction: 'This book is by no means exhaustive. It is an amuse-geule to tempt you, and show you that our ancestors ate good and interesting food...It is a historic taster into which you can dip for a feel of the country through the ages, whether the high life of Mary Stuart, the simple croft, the Age of Enlightenment, or the deep-fried Mars Bar of today.'
