Résumé

Today the Northeast of Scotland is the picture of peace and tranquillity. Some of the highest quality agricultural land is to be found here. But it was not always like this. Written for the non-expert and including stunning photographs and diagrams, this is the essential introduction to the geology and landforms of this part of Scotland.
