Written by the author of "Stalin's Nose", winner of the "Yorkshire Post" Best First Work Award, this book tells the story of Rory MacLean's rediscovery and exploration of the Clan MacLean as he shadows their emigration to Canada.

Rory MacLean was born in Vancouver and has lived in Toronto, London, Berlin, Italy and the Hebrides. He trained as a screenwriter, but during the premiere of his last feature film his mother fell asleep and his girlfriend ran off with the financier. Not surprisingly, he took a holiday. He returned with the manuscript of ‘Stalin’s Nose’, which won the Yorkshire Post’s Best First Work prize. ‘The most extraordinary debut in travel writing since “In Patagonia”,’ wrote reviewer William Dalrymple.
