A moving collection of journeys between Scotland and the western wild, filled with longing, duty, and lyric reflection.
this edition gathers the poems that travel from the Scots homeland to distant landscapes, capturing the pull of home and the pull of adventure. The work blends personal memory with landscape, offering moments of deep feeling and thoughtful observation without revealing more than the journey itself.
The poems move through seas and shores, inviting readers to see how place shapes memory, courage, and hope. With spare, direct language, they invite quiet reflection and a sense of shared passage, across time and tide.
Ideal for readers of lyric poetry and travelers at heart, seeking a melodic meditation on place and identity.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This engrossing tale follows the life of Norman, a brilliant yet indecisive man who emigrates with his family to the American West in search of a better life. As they embark on their journey, their ship is caught in a violent storm that threatens to end their voyage before it even begins. In the chaos, Norman's young son is tragically lost. The loss of his son pushes Norman into a deep depression, and he becomes withdrawn and hostile towards his wife, Ella. He isolates himself in the wilderness, consumed by grief and guilt, and Ella struggles to cope with his erratic behaviour and the demands of caring for their remaining child alone. As Norman's mental health deteriorates, Ella uncovers a dark secret from his past that threatens to destroy their family. The author delves into the complex themes of love, loss, and the devastating consequences of indecision, exploring the ways in which our past can shape our present and future. Ultimately, this book is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of redemption.
