EDINBURGH EVENING NEWS
Next to the Writers' Museum there are several paving stones, inscribed
with the names and quotes of famous Scottish writers.
How many have stepped over these and given little thoughts to the people
who had inspired them? Now help is at hand.
"Makar" is the old Scots word for poet and this witty and fluidly
engaging presentation, gives a flavour of Scotland's colourful history,
embellished by poetic extracts.
