Holidays On High Lands
By Rev. Hugh MacMillan
Published by MacMillan and Co: London 1873 2nd Edition

" Holidays on High Lands by Rev. Hugh MacMillan is a beautifully written blend of travel narrative, natural history, and spiritual reflection, chronicling the author's excursions through the Scottish Highlands. Drawing on his deep knowledge of botany and geology, MacMillan captures the rugged grandeur of the mountains, lochs, and glens with poetic sensitivity. Each chapter intertwines vivid landscape description with meditations on creation, offering both scientific observation and moral insight in equal measure.

Originally a popular companion for Victorian readers who sought both education and inspiration in nature, this second edition of 1873 refines the author's prose and expands upon his reflections. Rich in literary charm and theological depth, it celebrates the union of faith, nature, and the restorative power of solitude. This volume will appeal to admirers of Scottish travel writing, collectors of nineteenth-century naturalist literature, and readers drawn to the spiritual beauty of the Highlands. "
