Synopsis:  Offering comprehensive information about Scotland’s Western Isles, Scottish Isles - Skye & The Western Isles describes how to get the best out of a trip to the islands with descriptions of the best walks and climbs, castles and blackhouses, the history and culture, the liveliest music and folk festivals and ceilidhs. It advises where to find the finest food and drink, as well as full advice on how to get there by boat or air.

The book presents visitors with the rich variety of terrain and wildlife from the stark beauty of the Cuilin mountains of Skye to the raging seas off the Butt of Lewis or the palm trees of Arran and facilitates exploring these areas. Illustrated with colour photographs and line drawings, it also explains how you can locate the cave where Robert the Bruce watched his spider, discover if you are related to a Hebridean family, or take a flight to Barra that lands on the beach.
