The Unknown Hebrides
John Macpherson
Eileach an Naoimh * the Garbh Eileach * Dun Chonnuill * Luing * Lismore * Scarba * Fladda * Belnahua * the Crowlins * South Ascrib * Priest Island * Isle Martin * Soay * Shuna * Kerrera * Eilean Macaskin Featuring two main groups of islands – the islands of the Firth of Lorne and islands of Skye and Ullapool, The Unknown Hebrides is a spectacular celebration of some of the most beautiful and yet inaccessible of Scotlands island heritage. Not simply beautiful in themselves these islands serve as spectacular vantage points for the magnificent scenery around. From the great amphitheatre of the Firth of Lorne to the grandeur of the Cuillins from Soay, this book is a unique portrait of Scotlands forgotten islands. It is also a poignant reminder of islands long abandoned by man, and industry now long forgotten.
