Between Weathers: Travels in 21st Century Shetland
By (author) Ron McMillan; Foreword by Aly Bain
“Between Weathers” is the first all-new Shetland travel narrative since Victorian times. Ron McMillan spent weeks exploring scenic landmarks, archaeological treasure troves and remote islands. A travel writer for more than twenty years, he casts an inquisitive and witty eye over present-day Shetland to interweave the islands’ history, archaeology and geology with observations on a remarkably hospitable society. Set amid fascinating locations and filled with stories skilfully told, this is a book for lovers of lyrical travel writing delivered with authority and irresistible humour.

For ten years, from a home base in Hong Kong, McMillan criss-crossed Asia on assignment for major magazines in Asia, North America and Europe. Now based in Bangkok, Thailand, BETWEEN WEATHERS is his first book.
