About This Item
(Newton Abbot, David & Charles, 1970). 8vo; original blue boards; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; some foxing to endpapers; pp. 269; black-and-white photographic plates; maps; line drawings in text. Very good condition. "Mr McLellan writes as an islander; he captures all the moods of coast and mountain, of hope and fear as the permanent population dwindles and more cottages become holiday homes for non-residents. But though this is a work to be read for pleasure, it is also a reference book packed with detailed fact on every aspect of the island's history, industry, communications, natural history and social life. It will undoubtedly remain the standard work on the island for many years to come." .
