A wonderful old fashioned natural history book written in a pleasing prose that flows as daintily as a Scottish mountain burn. The sketches, observations and descriptions of the Scottish islands and Highland topography and its wildlife are a joy to read and while not sentimental the air of poetic reverie and dare I say it - joy - fills these pages.
