John Macnab

In 1925, John Buchan published his second most famous novel, John Macnab; three high-flying men — a barrister, a cabinet minister and a banker — are suffering from boredom. They concoct a plan to cure it. They inform three Scottish estates that they will poach from each two stags and a salmon in a given time. They sign collectively as 'John Macnab' and await the responses. This novel is a light interlude within the Leithen Stories series — an evocative look at the hunting, shooting and fishing lifestyle in Highland Scotland.
With an introduction by Andrew Greig.
This edition is authorised by the John Buchan Society.
