Publisher's Synopsis
'Oban. The Isle of Mull. Glencoe - our holy trinity of west coast wonders.' At the age of seventeen, Chris James Peet fell in love. With a landmass - a large stretch of coastal loveliness stretching from Oban to Glencoe and out to sea swept him up and refused to let him go. Along with his best friend Dan and countless pints at the bar, they became helplessly attached to the West Coast of Scotland and each other. From a developing friendship deeply rooted in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland to a lasting one almost twenty years later, these two old chums return for a week in the summer of 2013 to revisit their favourite haunts, and reminisce and recollect with memories and pleasures from this glorious part of the world. Liberally sprinkled with a selection of light verse, and part memoir, part travelogue, part journal and told with the odd dollop of adolescent humour that only the best of friends can appreciate, A Week On The West Coast encapsulates the inspiring grandeur of western Scotland, the zany quirks of two old mates and the heart-warming joy of an enduring friendship.
