William W. Starr takes readers on a romp around Scotland in Whiskey, Kilts, and the Loch Ness Monster: Traveling through Scotland with Boswell and Johnson. Although he reverses the direction taken by Boswell and Johnson and detours to places they didn't go, you'll learn a lot about them and about current Scotland. The book is perfect for someone who has been there and wants to remember or for the person going there who wants an overview. It's funny and fulfilling.

About Books, January 6, 2011
J. Harley McIlrath is a native Iowan, a bookstore manager and a writer. Possum Trot is his book of short stories published by Ice Cube Books. I loved each one. They evoke an earlier time, are about love, familes and farm life. You'll find tears and smiles in the McIlrath's work.
