DROP IN THE OCEAN (ISLE OF MUCK) (ORIGIN)

This book tells the story of the Isle of Muck through the colourful anecdotes of Lawence MacEwan, whose family have owned the island since 1896. This tiny fertile island of only 1500 acres is home to a hard-grafting community of 30 people, dominated by the vagaries of the sea. There are tales of coal puffers, livestock transportation on steamers, extraordinary chance meetings, and adventures that eventually led him to finding his wife Jenny on the island of Soay.
