Droving was once the lifeblood of Scotland's rural economy. In this book the author follows the drovers and their cattle from the Atlantic coast to Uist to the mainland marts. Travelling by campervan and armed with a voice recorder, she seeks out the last surviving drovers. The result is an extraordinary insight into a lost world, told through the voices of the few remaining individuals who remember the days of walking with cattle.
