Mackenzie's humor delights us!By pjburnHow could you NOT love this book and it's colorful characters, a plot based on a historical event, where all turns out the right way, where odious characters are put on by attractive folks, where the foibles of a egotistical, OCD outsider are revealed over and over for their insensitivity and futility in a comic tour-de-force written so many years ago, but timeless in its humor. Aristophanes, even, would be hugely entertained! Pardon me, but I'm going to go somewhere and learn Gaelic now.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Whiskey GeloreBy David.

Great readBy CustomerVery very enjoyable great story light entertainment bring back more classics , would enjoy more of this type of read World War II has brought rationing to the Hebridean islands of Great and Little Todday. When food is in short supply, it is bad enough, but when the whisky runs out, it looks as though the end of the world has come. George Campbell needs the courage to stand up to his mother and marry Catriona. The priest, the doctor and, of course, the innrsquo;s landlord are also victims of the low morale. Therersquo;s no conversation, no jollity, and no fun until a shipwreck off the coast brings a piece of extraordinary good fortune. Originally published in 1947 and adapted to film in 1949, this novel is based on a true event in the Scottish Hebrides and continues to be an entertaining insight into island culture through its lively characters. Wartime food rationing is bad enough, but when the whisky supplies run out on the Hebridean islands of Great and Little Todday, nothing seems to go right. Then the fifty-thousand-bottle cargo of the shipwrecked S. S. Cabinet Minister brings salvation - in its most giddily intoxicating form.About the AuthorCompton Mackenzie was a writer and a Scottish nationalist.
