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 nefericire, fara iesire la mare la inceputul vietii sale de adult, averea autorilor s-a schimbat cand a inceput sa viziteze coasta de vest a Scotiei in anii 1930. Si-a facut case temporare impreuna cu familia pe unele dintre cele mai indepartate insule Hebride, astfel incat sa poata studia obiceiurile focilor cenusii si ale pasarilor marine.
