Rising off the western seaboard of mainland Scotland are hundreds of islands; hidden worlds. Beginning on Arran, Jonny Muir sets out to explore these places with a single ambition: to reach the faraway St Kilda archipelago; the islands at the edge of the world. On the way he attempts to find his inner peace on Holy Isl&, takes part in a punishing foot race across the misty mountains of Jura, confronts the Inaccessible Pinnacle on Skye & walks along the white-sand beach on Berneray that became the face of a Thailand tourism campaign. Island life is not without its challenges. Man-eating midges live up to their repuration on Rum & a furious Atlantic storm threatens to rip his tents to shreds on Barra
- with him inside. An intensely personal account of a journey through some of Britain's most extraordinary landscapes, Isles at the Edge of the Sea is a celebration of Scotland's west coast islands, from the people who inhabit these fragile places to the ever-changin vistas created by the collision of l&, sea & sky.
