Angus MacKay (1812-1859) is one of the most important figures in piping history, though today he is best-known for having gone mad.

This novel lets MacKay tell his story, from his childhood on the Isle of Raasay, to his rise to early renown and his marriage, to Buckingham Palace and Balmoral, and, finally, Bedlam.
