Description
Following the success of an "Eye on the Hebrides", Mairi Hedderwick was urged to embark on further travels. It was no easy task. A new journey, with its inherent deprivations and discomforts, could not be done to order. It had to be a compulsion - an inspiration. In the spirit of emulating her model, Mairi travelled, as the Victorian artist, J.T. Reid did, mostly on foot and even sold her house in Inverness and lodged in Edinburgh, Reid's starting place, following his sketching tour of Scotland.
