Dr Diana Gabaldon, author of the bestselling Outlander series, will be joining us in Glasgow in July for the world's first international Outlander conference.

She will be opening the conference on the evening of Tuesday 18th July (16.00-17.00) and we are inviting fans and scholars to join her, in the magnificent surroundings of the University of Glasgow's Bute Hall, to hear her thoughts on all things Outlander.

Her lecture, which is open to the public, is entitled - '"Why Scotland? Why Not Mexico?" Genes, Borders, Culture and Fiction: Why They Matter and When They Don't'.

The Outlander literary series is made up of nine thrilling instalments, and tells the tale of a post-Second World War nurse who accidentally time travels to Jacobite Scotland. Outlander became one of the bestselling book series of all time and spawned the hugely popular TV series, currently in its seventh season.

Hearing Diana discuss her epic time-travelling adventure will be an event not to be missed!
