Riassunto

Over 40 years ago, Eric and Ruth MacLeod took themselves and their two small daughters off to an abandoned croft house in the remotest quarter of the Scottish West Highlands. Rocky and windswept, it was an unlikely Eden. Here they remained for sixteen years, reconstructing the building and making a home, learning to shear and attending creels, introducing electricity and running small businesses. They made a life that included the wild creatures of moor and shore, accommodation with the unpredictable sea, and the friendship of many great characters. Their story played out in a landscape of hills and coast, a place of incomparable beauty that remains unspoiled to this day.
