The Cairngorms: Their natural history and scenery

Nethersole-Thompson, Desmond

"Experience had taught us that the worst hardly ever happens, and if it does, it can usually be turned into a best." Katharine Stewart captures what it was really like trying to make a living out of a hill croft near Loch Ness 50 years ago. A couple and their young daughter, fresh from city life, immerse themselves in the practicalities of looking after sheep, cattle and hens, mending fences, baking bread and surviving the worst that Scottish winters can throw at them.  At times they find it a desperate struggle to get the work done and to make ends meet. Working as a tight family unit, they learn to cope, and in time grow to love their way of life and their little croft.
