Dr Walker saw the Hebrides just as the ideas of the Improvers were reaching them, and his report gives us a last opportunity to see the basis of the old island economy and the life and conditions of the inhabitants. This edition, edited by Margaret McKay of the School of Scottish Studies at the University of Edinburgh, includes a biographical introduction which also places the text in context, together with notes and index.
