In 1930 the last remnant of the population of the St Kilda islands were evacuated to new homes on the mainland, at their own request. 60 years later W.R. Mitchell joined a working party of the National Trust for Scotland to realise a boyhood ambition to visit the islands. This is an account of his emotional and challenging visit. It includes records, details and pictures of the lives of the original islanders and their harsh self-reliant life
