50956: Travels in the Western Hebrides from 1782 to 1790

Travels in the Western Hebrides from 1782 to 1790 is a book written by Reverend John Lane Buchanan and originally published in 1793. Based on the author’s personal experiences as a missionary minister, it is rich in detail about the daily lives and practices of the inhabitants of the Western Isles. The book was also controversial since the author, having been accused of several actions unbecoming to a minister, used it as a platform for unrestrained attacks on clergy and landowners.
