"Our goal is to produce a very readable, visually stimulating and hopefully intriguing HIS-story of Scotland, with personal discoveries," the Scotsman quoted Sir Sean, as saying.

In Scotland, Connery will explore Scottish humour, literature, art, architecture, sport especially Edinburgh, where he was born, bred and famously worked as a milkman.

Sir Sean’s Scotland will be on bookshelves in stores in the UK in September 2007, in time to mark the 300th anniversary of the Treaty of Union between Scotland and England.
