More Views from the North Lochs: Aimsir Eachainn 1989 to 1995

Giving a voice to the Scottish Gael at the end of the 20th century, the late Hector Macdonald scribed the brilliant weekly column, A View from North Lochs for the “West Highland Free Press”. Inspired by the great Irish writer Brian O’Nolan, who published novels under the pseudonym Flann O’Brien but wrote for the “Irish Times” as ‘Cruiskeen Lawn’, Hector Macdonald commented for more than fifteen years from the North Lochs, creating an array of unforgettable characters, eccentric scenarios, magnificent satire and enraged comment, all of which were entwined with an effortless humour and grace. This book is the second collection of columns from the great Aimsir Eachainn, following on from the hugely successful first volume.
