Skipness:
Memories of a Highland Estate
Angus Graham's is an affectionate and gently humorous account,
based on personal experience and family anecdote, of a highland
estate from the Victorian period until well into the present
century. With learning lightly worn, the author takes in the
archaeology and history of the area, the impact of the new,
improving lairds on the local scene and its economy, as well
as conjuring up, with elegance and economy of style, the way
of life, now gone, of a leisured class of yesteryear. Skipness
was originally published by Tuckwell Press.
