This book is a peerless collection of Scotland’s finest houses at their height of beauty, before the destructive forces of the 20th century swept so many away and emptied others of their contents. Here are the famous palaces and castles, from Holyroodhouse and Glamis to Inverrary and Culzean, recorded in photographs of timeless authority. Also profiled are the fragile ensembles of 18th-century houses—Arniston, Newhailes, Drum—shown with their gardens, plasterwork, tapestries, furniture, and paintings. Most breathtaking of all is Hamilton Palace and its incomparable collections photographed months before the house was demolished and its treasures scattered. Featuring more than 200 of Country Life’s finest photographs of some 20 houses, this collection truly shows the splendor of the Scottish house.

Scotland's Castles is a beautifully illustrated celebration and account of the renaissance of Scottish castles that has taken place since 1950. Over 100 ruined and derelict buildings – from tiny towers to rambling baronial mansions – have been restored as homes, hotels and holiday lets. These restorations have mainly been carried out by new owners without any connections to the land or the family history of the buildings, which they bought as ruins. Their struggles and triumphs, including interviews and first-person accounts, form the core of the book, set in the context of the enormous social, political and economic changes of the late twentieth century.
