The Western Isles

The Western Isles

by Francis Thompson (Author)

Synopsis

Illustrated with photographs which aim to emphasize the islands' extraordinary natural beauty and legacy of megaliths, castles, crafts and seamanship, this book records a linguistic and cultural heritage which is now staging a comeback. The book also gives coverage to many of the famous names which have had connections with the island, such as Gaelic bard Ian Lom, storyteller Donald MacPhee, MacAulay and Gladstone. There is also a look at the appeal of the islands to outsiders.
