ONE SAVVY SCOT SKIPPER

Ever wonder what it was like to be the Captain of a Clyde Puffer -- that is, a steamship on the beautiful lochs of the Scots highlands at the beginning of the twentieth century?

Enter now the captivating world of Captain Para Handy and the irascible crew of "The Vital Spark," called by it's captain "the best boat in the tread."

Join Para Handy, (or, rather, Captain John Macfarlane, his real name) and his crew of characters, the wondrous Hurricane Jack, the effete engineer Dan Macphail, the superstitious ship's mate Dougie, Colin the Tar and his cousin Davie Green.

Para Handy loses command of his beloved boat -- for a while. Read about a lost child, and the startling fate of a canary. Chuckle over Dougie's payday trouble with his wife. Plus a very odd Scots recipe.

Take a deep whiff of the distillery, keep an eye out for Nessie, grab yourself a bagpipe and a bowlful of haggis and get the kilt charmed off you in these delightful tales!
