Book excerpt: In this uproariously funny story, the setting is the enchanting Hebridean islands of Great Todday and Little Todday, in which the inhabitants are more concerned with the replenishment of their supplies of whisky than with the defence of the Islands against the enemy. All our old friends - Sergeant-Major Odd and his charming Peggy (whom he successfully carries off), Captain Waggett, Father Macalister, the Macroons and the MacRuries - are here again, and their activities in connection with the wreck of the S.S. Cabinet Minister, loaded to the gunwales with whisky for America, give full scope to Compton Mackenzie's hilarious wit.
