“An island history almost without comparison . . . one of the finest Highland books of the 21st century” from the renowned Scottish historian (West Highland Free Press). The tiny diamond-shaped island of Pabay lies in Skye’s Inner Sound, just two and a half miles from the bustling village of Broadford. One of five Hebridean islands of that name, it derives from the Norse papa-ey, meaning “island of the priest.” Many visitors since the first holy men built their chapel there have felt that Pabay is a deeply spiritual place, and one of wonder. These include the great 19th-century geologists Hugh Miller and Archibald Geikie, for whom the island’s rocks and fossil-laden shales revealed much about the nature of Creation itself. Len and Margaret Whatley moved to Pabay from the Midlands and lived there from 1950 until 1970. Leaving a landlocked life in Birmingham for the emptiness of an uninhabited island was a brave and challenging move for which nothing could have prepared them. Christopher Whatley, their nephew, was a regular visitor to Pabay whilst they lived there. In this book, based on archival research, oral interviews, memory and personal experience, he explores the history of this tiny island jewel, and the people for whom it has been home, to create a vivid picture of the trials, tribulations and joys of island life. “If the island itself is a diamond, this work is a sparkling gem.” —The Press and Journal “Beautifully written, and presents a richly detailed and fascinating historical narrative . . . It’s as much a testimony to how people have shaped the island and how the island has shaped them.” —Dundee Courier

For courses in Cisco Technology, Cisco Guides and Certification, Routing and Switching, and Network Management. Cisco Router Configuration & Troubleshooting, Second Edition serves as a reference for students studying network and system administration. If your course tackles how to configure and maintain existing Cisco routers as well as get new hardware up and running, add this book to your reading list. The author begins by touching on the foundation behind routing technology: networks, protocols, and hardware. Then he jumps right into router configuration, discussing setup, local and wide area networking, security, and monitoring. By providing advice and preferred practices, instead of just rehashing Cisco documentation, Tripod gives students information they can start using today. The troubleshooting section uses a fictitious company to illustrate the different scenarios an administrator might encounter. It includes situations that deal with Cisco routers, as well as hardware from other companies, mimicking the heterogeneous environment most administrators face.
