Description

A Parcel of Rogues is a quirky, barbed comedy. Opportunistic and crafty, the main characters, Gourlay and McMinn, along with the herculean Big Red, become bumbling founding member of 'army' cells that they hope will bring about Scotland’s independence from Great Britain. With Scottish independence in the air, the author takes a few jabs not only at Sassenach overlords, but at his ain folk, and suggests that the disputatious Scots are too busy arguing among themselves to deal effectively with their southern neighbours.
