Set on and around Linmill farm, where the author was born and spent many summer holidays, this collection of Robert McLellan's stories is a beautifully crafted evocation of a childhood spent in the fertile Clyde Valley in the early 20th century. Whether you grew up in the 1990s, 1960s or the 1920s, Robert McLellan's Linmill Stories will leave you nostalgic for days spent making scones with Granny, and walks with Grandad back when you were so wee you had to be lifted over every stream.
