In 'An Island Odyssey' Hamish Haswell-Smith casts off in his 41-foot sloop Jandara , armed with his sketch pad and a route map of a journey first taken by Martin Martin in 1703. Haswell-Smith sets sail on a voyage that will take him to 52 different islands around the Scottish Coast, from Ailsa Craig in the Firth of Clyde to St Kilda, Fair Isle and Bass Rock. Filled with natural history, local legend and landscapes and accompanied by the author's own distinctive sketches and watercolours 'An Island Odyssey' is a delightful way to discover or rediscover the romance, beauty and inescapable magnetism of the Scottish Islands.
