John Buchan 
John Macnab (Illustrated) 

In 1925, John Buchan published his second most famous novel,  
John Macnab.



Three powerful men suffering from boredom concoct a plan to cure it. They notify three Scottish landowners that they intend to poach from each two stags and a salmon in a given time. They sign collectively as ‘John Macnab’ and await the responses. Alas, boredom soon turns into panic when the unsuspecting men land themselves in hot water. 
John Macnab is a light interlude within the Leithen Stories series — an evocative look at the hunting, shooting and fishing lifestyle in Highland Scotland.
