“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

This book is the first consolidated work that contains the entire ancestral tree of the American McQuains dating back to their Scottish progenitor, Alexander McQuain. Pictures, records, and stories of this prerevolutionary family, as they dwelled in America, are now recorded forever for future generations. This book also discusses the Gaelic origins of the McQuain line based on a multitude of sources concerning Irish and Scottish history. These sources seem to point back to Irish high kings, Norse influence, and the Scottish Highlands. McQuain men possess haplogroup DNA that points back to the high kings of Ireland and the name MacCuinn. These MacCuinns are recorded as moving into Scotland as MacQueens. Once in Scotland, the MacQueens are documented as possessing lands in the Isle of Skye and Inverness. The name, McQuain, is recorded in birth records in both of these places. This book contains ancient stories about these distant ancestors.

"With Into the Ocean, Kristjan Ahronson makes two dramatic claims: that there were people in Iceland almost a century before Viking settlers first arrived c. AD 870, and that there was a tangible relationship between the early Christian 'Irish' communities of the Atlantic zone and the Scandinavians who followed them." - Book jacket.
