Quotes:
"If you would see a perfect picture post card stretch of Scotland take the road from Braemar to Ballater any afternoon when the sun is shining. Every yard of this road is a coloured post card. All the graciousness, all the gentleness, all the sweetness and the prettiness which is denied the majestic moutain pass from Perth has taken root in the valley of the Dee."
-- In Search of Scotland
