Using a unique series of images, many taken on the island of Hirta, the route is traced through the Western Isles and takes in Coll, Tiree, Skye, North and South Uist and St Kilda itself. The album itself was found in a Bristol antiques fair and the author collected another 40 or so period images and brochures to trace the route from Glasgow's Anderston Quay down the Clyde to Village Bay in St Kilda.
