ST KILDA II

With little experience or knowledge of the larger world, life on St Kilda was uncomplicated by the trappings of wealth, political intrigue on any scale, complex legal wrangles, or excesses of vice. MacAuley wrote: “The humble blessings of bread and wild fowl, of peaceful cottages and little flocks, of angling rods and hunting ropes, are all the riches, honours, and profits they aspire after.”

Harman/Hirte
