Review of the hardback: 'An island of sanity and common sense in a sea of emotion ...Dr Gaskell's book is no myopic parochial study. It raises social and economic issues of national importance. The book is a remarkable achievement.' Victorian Studies
Review of the hardback: 'The most accomplished social and economic history of this corner of the West Highlands ... It is the detail of Dr Gaskell's account that is so fascinating.' The Economist
Dr Gaskell's pioneering study of social and economic change in a west Highland parish during the last century has come to be regarded as a classic of local history, a book which raises issues that are still of general and indeed of national importance. But Morvern Transformed is more than a study of history: it is (to quote Professor R. H. Campbell's new Introduction) 'a fascinating portrayal of a way of life which, only a century old, is already as different from the present as it was in its own day from the way of life another century before.'
