Scottish Crofters: A Historical Ethnography of a Celtic Village

The first couple of chapters of the book are a little slow and seems, in some spots, to be a simplified overview of the rest of the book. Naturally this is also not a book for casual reading. I gather someone must be realivly interested in either Scottish culture, or just foreign culture in general to get through this book. For me, both types of interest apply. I found the author's style of writing easy to read and her experience genuine and unbias. Keep in mind that this is only Scottish culture as it happens on a remote island. Scottish culture, on the mainland, as the author touches on, is somewhat different than her writing in this book.
