5 out of 5 stars Breathtaking   September 29, 1999

Real men throw kegs. Real women sleep with real men. I love Scotland and all the hairy drunk bastards that call it home.


1 out of 5 stars A disgrace to my culture   September 29, 1999

How dare any woman to write a book on a man's sport. I wonder if Mrs. Donaldson knows that women are peed upon in Scotland.


5 out of 5 stars This book really opened up my heart   September 15, 1999

Before I read this insightful study into the athletic world of drunken Scots, I must say that I wanted to never visit Scotland. Now that I read the book i want to go there and pee on their culture. They throw keg up in the air. Wow how cool is that. They throw cabers, but can they win a war?
