About this title

Synopsis

One spring Leslie Thomas took time off from writing novels and began a journey to the small islands around Britain and Ireland. First published in 1968, Some Lovely Islands is a richly evocative account, alive with stories of sea and storms, happy with humour and humanity. The book has since been completely redesigned, the text revised and updated to include additional islands.
