Synopsis:
In 1995 Scotland celebrated one hundred years of motoring and a bridge from Kyle of Lochalsh finally reached the Isle of Skye. Bob Charnley decides to look back in time rather than predict the future, and with assistance from some early postcards and rare photographs, he guides the reader through seven decades as the journey from the old inn at Cluanie over Mam Ratagan to Glenelg unfolds. He describes alternative routes involving ferries and steamers. If you hanker after the traffic-free roads of the thirties and David MacBrayne's swift pre-war steamers, or just fancy a leisurely trip around Skye and Lochalsh, this book of nostalgic album views is not to be missed.
