Publisher's Synopsis
This latest memoir from the British Geological Survey concentrates on the Outer Hebrides, which lie on the north western seaboard of Scotland. They display a wide range of scenery - from the rugged cliffs and mountains of Harris to the gentle sandy duneland of South Uist, and they contain some of the most ancient rocks exposed in Europe. A comprehensive survey of the geological make-up of this archipelago is presented in a slipcase complete with a folder containing maps illustrating lithology and structure.
