The "Country Series" aims to combine photographs with light, but authoritative commentary on the chosen themes, which cover art, architecture, travel, local history, the countryside, topography, gardens and rural life. This paperback edition focuses on one of the most beautiful areas of unspoiled landscape in Europe. Taking in the magical grandeur of the mountains of Assynt, the enigmatic ancient stones of Brodgar and Stenness on the Orkney Islands, the Well of the Dead on Culloden Moor and the "black houses" and cottages of the highlands, this book presents a journey, not only of dramatic scenic splendour, but also of great historical and social interest.
