About this product
Product Information
THE PERFECT COMPANION TO PETER MAY'S LEWIS TRILOGY, AND A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY THROUGH THE HEBRIDEAN ISLANDS. The landscape of the Outer Hebrides, with its stark cliffs, ghostly mists and lonely beaches, has become a definitive character of Peter May's Lewis trilogy. In Hebrides, readers will accompany him on an odyssey in prose and images, through a history of the Vikings' 'Long Island' and his own deep personal connection with the islands that influenced his bestselling work. Travelling as if alongside his protagonist Fin Macleod, he describes the island life - as bewitching as it is treacherous - his encounter with the bird-hunters of Sula Sgeir, the savage seas of Ness and the churches of Eriskay. With extracts from the trilogy and specially commissioned photographs, this book places his writing and characters within the land that gave them form. Couldn't get enough of the Lewis trilogy and its extraordinary setting? Check out Peter May's latest bestseller, Coffin Road, in which the million-selling master of crime brings murder back to the Outer Hebrides.Product Identifiers

Peter May Hebrides
This is an amazing book, a great choice for anyone who is visiting or has visited the Hebrides. The colour plates in the book and the history are a joy and a wonderful reminder of the places visited. Worth every penny. A great book to have on a coffee table, ready to be picked up and enjoyed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

"A great addition to the book shelf. Factual account of island life"
Having read the Lewis Trilogy I was left extremely interested in the islands and island life. I then took this book on a trip to the Hebrides, the book came alive and added to the adventure. A wonderful book with so many beautiful pictures.
