LIGHT & FLIGHT A Hebridean
wildlife and landscape sketchbook
Written and illustrated by Philip Snow
ISBN 9781904353102
128 pages
£25
Postage on this book £1.50 UK |
Over 250 watercolours
and sketches.
From the cliffs of the
Butt of Lewis to the granite outpost of Ailsa Craig, Philip Snow has
captured in his stunning watercolours the whole coastline of the Hebrides.
His studies of birds are the product of a lifetime of observation in the
field. Most of his pictures come with field notes and anecdotes that
transport the reader to the world of soaring eagles and rasping corncrakes.
No other book has presented the rich wildlife of the islands so intimately
and with such skill.
