This is the story of Raasay and its people in the inter-war years, told through the eyes of someone who loved this island intimately. It provides a fascinating glimpse of a lost way of life, when Gaelic language and traditions once had stronghold and when crofting held a much more dominant position. Raasay is one of the least known jewels of the Hebrides. Sheltered by Skye to the west, this side of the island contrasts with the stark grandeur of the eastern cliffs and valleys which lie under the spectacular mountain Dun Caan. It is here that the cleared townships of Hallaig, Suishnish and Screapadal, made famous by the poet Sorley Maclean who is perhaps Raasay’s most famous son, are to be found.
