Island Years, Island Farm

Unhappily land-locked in his early adult life, the authors' fortunes changed when he began visiting Scotland's west coast in the 1930s. He made temporary homes with his family on some of the remotest Hebridean islands so he could study the habits of grey seals and seabirds. This book tells about his life on island.

Din pacate, fara iesire la mare la inceputul vietii sale adulte, soarta autorilor s-a schimbat cand a inceput sa viziteze coasta de vest a Scotiei in anii 1930. Si-a facut locuinte temporare cu familia sa pe unele dintre cele mai indepartate insule Hebridele pentru a putea studia obiceiurile focilor cenusii si ale pasarilor marine.
