Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an immersive account of a six-week coastal voyage taken by the author and his companions in Scotland, traversing the Orkney and Shetland Islands, as well as the west coast of the Scottish mainland. The author encountered a vast array of landscapes, from towering cliffs and pristine bays to tranquil lakes and hidden caves. Alongside the vivid descriptions of these natural wonders, the book delves into the rich history of the region, exploring the remnants of ancient civilizations and the stories of Norse settlers. The author's lively prose captures the excitement of sailing through treacherous waters and the thrill of exploring remote and unspoiled landscapes. This book serves as both a guide to the natural beauty of Scotland and a meditation on the power of the sea to connect people to the past and to each other.
