Synopsis
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to own your own islands? 20 years ago it happened to Adam Nicolson. Aged 21, he inherited the Shiants, 3 lonely islands set in a dangerous sea 5 miles off Lewis; only a stone bothy for accommodation - and one of the most beautiful places on the planet. A world of hermits and stories, of birds and boats, of fishermen and sheep, Sea Room is these islands' story, written with passion and poetry - a celebration for all of us of an island life.

"Exceptionally well done, beautifully written, personal yet panoramic." - Observer

"An extraordinarily outward-looking book... a truly passionate attention to detail... A love-letter no one else could hope to write so well." - Noel Malcolm, Sunday Telegraph
