Long before he set foot on the islands, Big Cat Diary & Springwatch presenter, Simon King, fell in love with Shetl&. This extraordinary northern wilderness is home to otters & a vast seabird colony, but it was a chance encounter with a killer whale that compelled him to spend a year getting to know the place of his boyhood dreams for a BBC series. With his wife & young daughter, Simon experienced Shetland through the changing seasons & discovered the wildlife & the warmth of community in these islands battered by the North Sea. Their journey is filled with adventure, beauty, humour & occasional hardship as Simon discovers the true voice of Shetl&. ...

The most northerly of Britain`s island groups, Shetland is so far removed from the rest of the UK that it usually appears as an inset on maps. Although relatively little known to those from outside the islands, Shetland is a magnificent terrain for walkers, especially those who love to really explore & get away from the beaten track. The coastal walking here

Includes:: some of the finest in the country, with superb cliffs, towering sea stacks, caves & natural arches seemingly around every corner. Added to this is Shetland`s better known claim to fame for its spectacular seabird colonies ? huge gannetries, moorland packed with arctic & great skuas, arctic terns in the more sheltered spots, & everyone`s favourite ? the puffins. The islands also enjoy a dense population of otters, many seals, & a chance to see killer whales or other giants of the deep. Beyond all this natural grandeur, Shetland`s history is fascinating too. The archaeological attractions are much less known than those on Orkney, but sites such as Jarlshof have amazingly preserved remains from prehistory right up to more recent times. These include iron age villages, chambered cairns, Viking longhouses, pictish carvings, & impressive brochs ? including the most complete of all these iron-age defensive towers, on Mousa.

”A wonderful slice of home, food & family from one of the most beautiful places on earth: this book is heaven.” Jenny Colgan SHETLAND is where Scotland meets Scandinavia & the North Sea hits the Atlantic Ocean. Isolated, unspoilt & rich in history & tradition, Shetland is a truly singular place. & for James & Tom Morton, it`s home. Shetland: Cooking on the Edge of the World explores life on an island with food, drink & community at its heart. Surrounded by crystal-clear waters, Shetland seafood is second to none. The native sheep roam freely. Here cooks, farmers, crofters & fishermen toil following traditions that go back hundreds of years. This is a heartfelt book, full of passion for place & community. The recipes celebrate the very best the isles have to offer, feasting on the ocean`s harvest & the treasures of croft land & cliff face. There is cooking fuelled by necessity & thrift &, as you might expect on Scotland`s Norse edge, there are drams & parties galore. With spectacular photography by Andy Sewell, Shetland celebrates a very different kind of island paradise. ...
