SCOTLAND'S HOMECOMING
Nova Scotia to Stornoway
Written to commemorate the 2009 Scottish Homecoming, 'Nova Scotia to Stornoway' is a story told through time (1888-2009). Illustrated.
Threatened by 'The Clearances' and being exiled from their own community on the island of Lewis, the MacKinnon family leaves Stornoway in search of 'The Promised Land'. The story follows their journey across the Atlantic; resettlement in Canada; and moves through several generations, returning home to Scotland in 2009.
A story filled with the love, hate, tragedy, promises and deception which Scotland's pioneers faced with courage, determination, faith and hope.
For they made their dreams come true.
Another bizarre, sometimes haunting story from Colin Demét, in this, his tenth book from the Scottish collection.
