Island Going

In July 1935, Robert Atkinson and John Ainslie set out on an ornithological search for the rare Leach's Fork-tailed Petrel. Their quest was to last for twelve years and took them from their Oxford base to many of the remote and often deserted islands off the north-west coast of Scotland.Island Going is the account of their adventure.

In iulie 1935, Robert Atkinson si John Ainslie au inceput o cautare ornitologica pentru rara Petrel cu coada de furca a lui Leach. Cautarea lor urma sa dureze doisprezece ani si i-a dus de la baza lor de la Oxford la multe dintre insulele indepartate si deseori pustii de pe coasta de nord-vest a Scotiei. Island Going este povestea aventurii lor.
