Book Recommendations
If you have yet to visit Skye, or just want to remind yourself of past visits, here are some resources that I hope you will find useful and interesting.
Where possible I've included direct links to Internet sources for the books, but if you'd rather use your local bookstore or library, that's fine by me.
Our list or recommendations is growing, but we can't cover all your possible interests, so if you need something else, try a search of Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com.
I am always looking for ways to improve these pages, so if you want to suggest a book I ought to include or if you want to make any other comment, please use the feedback form or email me.

Full Disclosure
Some links on these pages are in association with Amazon.co.uk and in association with Amazon.com.
If you buy a book through any of the links provided, I get a small kickback from Amazon. The book doesn't cost you any more, it's just Amazon thanking me for pointing you in their direction.
There is no obligation to buy through these links and Amazon never tell me (or anyone else) who bought what book when. If you prefer to support your local bookstore or library, that's fine by me - all the relevant details are provided on the review pages.
