About the Book

This is the tale of a small civil war in one of the remotest regions of Britain. In 1918, the eminent liberal industrialist Lord Leverhulme bought the largest Hebridean island of Lewis. His intention was to revolutionize the lives and environment of its 30,000 people. But the islanders fought back.
