Description
One of the greatest travellers in Scotland, Martin Martin’s narrative of his journey around the Western Isles is a mine of information on customs, traditions, beliefs and practices which went into terminal decline after Culloden. This volume includes the earliest account of St Kilda, first published in 1697, and Donald Monro’s 1549 record of a pastoral visit to islands still coping with the aftermath of the fall of the Lords of the Isles. New edition.
