This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IV. The Government--Trade-- Departure from the island. T Kilda by a legal fiction is in the county of Inverness, but it is virtually ignored by the British Government. The inhabitants, it is true, pay taxes on their tobacco, whisky, etc., and the Receiver of Wrecks at Stornoway claims the half of the flotsam and jetsam. But for this they might doubt if they are subjects of the Queen. They are too poor and too white-skinned to be deemed worthy of attention. The proprietor, MacLeod of MacLeod, who bought the island several years ago, for, I believe, 2000, may say like Louis XIV., "The State--I am the State," for his power is unlimited. The trade is a monopoly in his hands, and his serfs are obliged to deal with him on his own terms. It is true he has offered to allow them to go and trade where they choose; but he knows he might as well tell one who has been fettered until his limbs have lost all ability that he is at liberty to run, or bid the ostrich lift its wings and fly. When it was suggested by the Spectator that the inhabitants were entitled to a post, no one but MacLeod objected. At present there is no means of getting a letter sent to the island, except by favour of him or his factor, and pestilence or famine might be there, and the inhabitants have no opportunity of letting their condition be known to their fellow-countrymen. If it is right that any private individual should be allowed to possess and govern a remote island like St Kilda, surely it ought to be one who is thoroughly acquainted with the people, and who feels a deep interest in their welfare. But MacLeod has never had his foot on the island, and all his information is derived from hearsay. Even- his agent cannot, except as regards business, have any...

In the summer of 1727, a group of men and boys from St Kilda are put ashore on a remote sea stac to harvest birds for food. No one returns to collect them. Why? Surely nothing but the end of the world can explain why they have been abandoned to endure storms, starvation and terror. And how can they survive, imprisoned on every side by the ocean? Inspired by a true event, this is a breathtaking story of nine boys and the courage it takes to survive against the odds, from three-time winner of the Whitbread/Costa Children's Book Award Geraldine McCaughrean.

A Melbourne sound that is at once both rakish and debonair. So what specifically is it about Melbourne that, according to the Sydney Morning Herald, it’s able to support around 465 live music venues as compared to 453 in New York, 385 in Tokyo and 245 in London despite its population being a fraction of those major world cities? Despite the flaky weather, the footy and Netflix, Melbournians are committed to going out at night and in great numbers in heat or hail to listen to live music and to find those bands and singers they’ve heard on Spotify or discovered on Soundcloud.
