SMALL ISLES (CANNA EIGG MUCK AND RUM) (RCAHMS) (PB)

10,000 years ago, hunter-gatherers landed on Rum, Eigg, Canna and Muck. Ever since, people have worked the islands to suit the changing needs of now-vanished communities. Emeritus Professor John Hunter searches for the stories of the Small Isles in the surviving evidence - fragmentary physical remains of dwellings, defences, places of worship and monuments, and the records of early antiquarians, historians and travellers. Illustrated with a wealth of photographs, maps and drawings, this is a fascinating tour of both place and time.
