Often referred to as the most important book ever written about whisky, this book contains an in depth look at the whisky distilleries of the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as sketches, maps and advertisements.

The information was gathered over a two year period from 1885-1887 when Barnard visited 162 distilleries; 129 in Scotland, 29 in Ireland and four in England.
