Description
Often surrounded by sea mist or racked by relentless gales, the island of Fair Isle runs to its own rhythms and is one of the most remote inhabited islands in Britain. Mona McAlpine’s memoir of her year nursing there in the mid 1960s, fresh from her training is a delightful read. The sole provider of medical care for the local population, her coming of age was dependent on the acceptance, support and kindness of the Fair Isle people. Would she succeed?
