About the Book
This desk address book is attractively illustrated with acclaimed illustrator Mairi Hedderwick’s beautiful sketches of seasonal Western Island

The sketches have been collected over a period of forty years, and both the old and the new are represented here, showing the changing
faces of the landscapes. Mairi’s sketches range across most of the isles, from Tiree to St Kilda, expertly capturing their differences and
characters.
