Published in association with the Scottish Council of Save the Children, HarperCollins is pleased to present A Scottish Childhood Volume II, a completely new anthology of childhood memories and experiences to complement the best selling original volume, A Scottish Childhood

A new selection of over 70 well-known Scots - ranging from Joe Beltrami and Ronnie Browne to Bill Forsyth and Nicholas Parsons - have donated personal pieces which relate tales drawn from all over Scotland and cover a span of some eighty years. Varying in tone from the wistful to the hilarious, these tales are guaranteed to charm and delight.

Sales of the original book reached over 25,000 copies and the new edition of this much-loved book will undoubtedly repeat this success.
