The Isle of Skye

The principle aim of this book is to capture the essence of Skye’s natural beauty and rich history, the traces of which are woven into the contemporary landscape. Alongside the photographs, Campbell provides engaging and informative text on Skye’s history, Celtic legends, archaeology, and complex geology. Sections feature the famous Cuillin ranges, the imposing Trotternish Ridge, the bloody feuding of the dominant MacDonald and MacLeod clans, and how the island’s story is told through the remnants of the past layered upon its ancient landscape. ICP Framebooks are conceived to allow the easy extraction of the many full-page photographs for framing once the reader has enjoyed the book. To this end, there is no text on these pages, just a simple white border surrounding the high quality prints. If they prefer to keep their book intact, readers have the option to order prints from the author’s website.
