Lord Purdey was shaking with anger. 'Bring back the lynx? Over my
dead body!' The environmental protestors murmured, and Rory stepped
forward. 'Your hunting has destroyed our hills and left them
treeless wastes, devoid of wildlife. It's time that changed.'
'Listen, you lentil-eating cat lover,' Purdey barked through the
megaphone, 'men like me own Scotland. If we want to kill anything
that moves and turn the whole damn place into a theme park, we'll
do it.' Someone from the group of protestors hurled a turnip. It
struck Purdey and he crumpled to the ground. Just as the archaic
class system he represents must eventually fall, Angus thought with
a grin. In his first two bestselling books, The Last Hillwalker and
Bothy Tales, John D. Burns invited readers to join him in the hills
and wild places of Scotland. In Sky Dance, he returns to that world
to ask fundamental questions about how we relate to this northern
landscape - while raising a laugh or two along the way. Anyone who
has gazed at the majesty of the Scottish mountains will know this
place and want to return to it. Now, as wild land is threatened
like never before, it's time we asked ourselves what kind of future
we want for the Highlands.
