Too many to choose from and there's not one that's the 'best' - i'll try and put a list together of 'must reads' though.

I still think Michael Jackson`s whisky book is hard to beat but I will not buy anything that has been updated by Domonic Roskrow and the other guy, not because I have anything against them but I think it is misleading to be putting other peoples notes as an addition to Mr Jacksons, their palates are different for a start.

The Making of Scotch Whisky - Moss and Hume definitive (?) record of the Scotch whisky industry history. The Whisky Men, collated by Smith; profiles and interviews with influencial characters from the industry.

Here are a couple of links to lists of publications, one very dry, the other pictorial, the latter is Facebook so I've no idea if you can view it from this link.:-

Grand, the first I created some time ago and haven't updated for ages, the latter is more accessible and will continue to be added to.

But it's only about Islay distilleries. And also about Islay itself.
