1988. 101pp. B&W illustrations. "Soay is a small island close to Skye in the Hebrides. People came to live on it during the clearances two hundred years ago. They stayed until 1953 when the entire native-born population was evacuated at their own request. This book is their story, and the author has told it so that the struggle of past generations may not be forgotten." Book and unclipped dust jacket both in very good condition with no inscriptions.
