Peter Edwards lives in Rhenigidale on the Isle of Harris with his wife, Fiona and their Labradors, Mara and Sandie. He is usually happiest when out walking. Katie Featherstone is a freelance writer and the author of several guidebooks. She writes about hiking, history and slow, sustainable travel. While Peter lives up in the Western Isles, Katie inhabits Port Ellen Islay in the Hebrides far south; the spectacular Small Isles lie scattered between them, conveniently accessed by neither party, but impossible to resist.
