Picturing Scotland: Southern Argyll
Content: A photographic journey through the Mull of Kintyre, Knapdale, the islands of Gigha, Islay, Jura and Colonsay and the area from Lochgilphead to Crinan. It reaches as far as Dunadd in Kilmartin Glen, where it meets the territory covered in the Northern Argyll volume in this series. The images include the grand panoramas, historic features, towns and villages, coasts and wildlife that make this part of Scotland so special. From the distilleries of Islay to the Paps of Jura, the variety is broad in this new collection of around 80 pictures, the great majority of which are published here for the first time.
For a list of featured locations, see below.
Market: Books in this series are bought by visitors and locals alike to give as gifts or to keep for their own enjoyment.
