The islands of the Outer Hebrides are home to some of the most
remote and spectacular scenery in the world. They host an
astonishing range of mysterious structures - stone circles, beehive
dwellings, holy wells and 'temples' from the Celtic era. Over a
twelve-day pilgrimage, often in appalling conditions, Alastair
McIntosh returns to the islands of his childhood and explores the
meaning of these places. Traversing moors and mountains, struggling
through torrential rivers, he walks from the most southerly tip of
Harris to the northerly Butt of Lewis. The book is a walk through
space and time, across a physical landscape and into a spiritual
one. As he battled with his own ability to endure some of the
toughest terrain in Britain, he met with the healing power of the
land and its communities. This is a moving book, a powerful
reflection not simply of this extraordinary place and its people
met along the way, but of imaginative hope for humankind.
