The Widows of Clyth

[trinkie]

Sometime ago someone was looking for this book by Donald Campbell.
I see there is a secondhand, signed copy at the following address:

http://dogbert.abebooks.com/abe/BookDetails?bi=428375752.

What a pity this book is no longer in print, it is a most beautifully written story of a fishing tragedy in Caithness in 1867 where six men from Clyth were lost at sea leaving twenty six children and five widows.

If you are looking for this book be quick, as they dont often come up.

45 Bucks!! All I can say is "Clyth Dalmighty"

Five widows and 26 kids!! Not as if they didn't leave a legacy. There must have been precious little else to do in Clyth in those days.
