Vintage 1961 ‘Scotland: Land of Colour’ by George Scott-Moncrieff, First Edition

A beautiful 1961 first edition of Scotland: Land of Colour by George Scott-Moncrieff, published by Oliver and Boyd of Edinburgh and London.

Filled with wonderfully atmospheric colour photography, the book journeys through Edinburgh, Bothwell Castle, Rannoch Moor, Glencoe, Ben Nevis, Eilean Donan, Portree, Raasay and more, a lovely mid-century portrait of Scotland and its landscapes.

It’s also such a gorgeous coffee table book with a beautifully textured green hardcover and elegant gilt lettering to the front. A really lovely decorative piece for a bookshelf or coffee table, and perfect for anyone who loves Scotland, vintage travel books and old colour photography.
