Off the western seaboard of Scotland are hundreds of islands.
Beginning on Arran, Jonny Muir sets out to explore these places
with a single ambition: to reach the St Kilda archipelago, the
islands at the edge of the world. On the way he attempts to finds
his inner peace on Holy Island, takes part in a punishing foot race
across the mountains of Jura, confronts the Inaccessible Pinnacle
on Skye and walks the white-sand beach on Berneray. He encounters
sharks and whales, discovers gory histories and follows in the
footsteps of Boswell and Johnson, but island life is not without
its challenges. 'Man-eating' midges live up to their reputation on
Rum. An Atlantic storm threatens to rip his tent to shreds on
Barra. Wicked weather lashes the Outer Hebrides, leaving his
prospects of reaching St Kilda balanced on a knife-edge. An
intensely personal account of a journey through some of Britain's
most extraordinary landscapes. Complete with twenty five beautiful
colour plates.
