Foula is a bleak, yet stunning island in the Atlantic Ocean, twenty miles west of Walls in Shetland. It is one of Great Britain’s most remote permanently inhabited islands.
The Isle of Foula remains the classic account of this lonely and beautiful island off Shetland. First published in 1937, it gives a glimpse both of the enormous range of interests of the author and the enduring fascination of this most remote of islands. As well as being a superb work of scholarship, the book is full of human interest and memories of the people of Foula from the early years of the twentieth century. The Isle of Foula
