Book Description

This O.S. map was printed just prior to the voluntary evacuation of the remaining residents of St. Kilda (1928) who decided by consensus that life there was no longer sustainable on account of illness, deaths & insufficient means for survival. The map consists of the main map of St Kilda with 3 inserts in the corners (Bottom left -Village of St Kilda ; top right - Boreray : bottom right - Levenish)
