Scottish Islands Explorer Magazine May-June 2013 Edição anterior

An outlier of the St Kilda Group, Stac an Armin, dominates the cover as it does the view for those fortunate to visit. To those who find Edinburgh far enough, then there are four articles - on staying in the capital, visiting the Islands of the Forth, looking closely at the Bass Rock, and getting out to Cramond Island. Ventures further afield are included - to Scarp, off-shore from North Harris, to Barra, Iona and, here are some special insights, to a dozen lighthouses on a ten-day trip from Oban. The life and times of Derek Cooper, still recalled for his Radio 4 Food Programme, are put into context. In the final section a Lancashire hill-walker describes how he became hooked on islands.
