Light wear to tips corners and edges of the book, a bit more to the jacket which is stained on the back panel; page edges spotted. A memoir of life in South Uist athe thurn of the last century. Frederick Rea began teaching in the remote Hebrides Islands off the coast of Scotland in 1890. "His pupils remember him as a sincere, conscientious man and an excellent teacher. This book also reveals his keen powers of observation, and his interest in the unfamiliar scenes and events he witnessed and recorded. His lack of city comforts was more that compensated for by the wonders of the natural world and the uncommon kindness and generosity of the islanders. Dr. Rea treasured his memories of South Uist for the rest of his life, and his love and respect for the islands is wonderfully conveyed in this vivid testament."
