The story of the Skye Bridge tolls ran for more than ten years. It is a story that goes right to the heart of government policy, the Skye Bridge was the first Public Finance Initiative in the UK, where a public project is built by private capital and the builder charges for the facility for years to come. The Skye and Lochalsh community felt a strong sense of injustice about what was being imposed on them from afar and The Skye Bridge Story is an entertaining and gripping account of events. Richly illustrated and presented as a bilingual Gaelic/ English text, this book is a life-affirming account of what is possible when people exercise their sense of justice.

The Isle of Skye, or Ant-Eilean Sgitheanach in its native Gaelic tongue, occupies an almost mythical place in the minds of many Scots. Romantic castles, magnificent sea-scapes, the alpine peaks of the Cuillin Ridge, marching pipe bands, scattered white crofters' cottages and a bloody history; the island has all these and more. This book features 40 moderate walks that take in much of this celebrated landscape, but reveal hidden gems too. In spite of its popularity Skye is still rich in undiscovered treasures, from coastal caves and arches, ruined villages cruelly cleared of their inhabitants, to fossilised dinosaur footprints and a rich array of wildlife. Written by Skye residents Paul and Helen Webster, these walks will reveal both the wild and gentler sides of this dramatic landscape. Isle of Skye: 40 Coast and Country Walks (Pocket Mountains).
