A Little Book of Malt Whiskies

From the days when production was linked to monastic orders and it was known as aqua vitae 'water of life', to the Excise Act of 1823 when whisky-makers bought licences and acquired respectability, to today when each malt has its own fiercely partisan adherents, malt whisky has exercised both a fascination and a delight in those who drink it. This little book, with its beautifully illustrated depictions of distilleries and their workings, is a mine of information on malt whisky - its history, how and where it is made, descriptions of twenty-four distilleries currently working, and how best malt whisky can be enjoyed.
