Description

Island Davaar, Campbeltown and a Lighthouse by James Patrick Hynes is a fascinating account of a small Scottish island with a rich history. Located at the mouth of Campbeltown Loch, Davaar Island is a haven for those seeking solitude and natural beauty. The island's unique landscape, shaped by the forces of nature, has played host to various historical events, including the presence of a lookout sentry during World War Two. The island's history is also marked by a tragic loss of life, that of Leonard Bennett, a caretaker and warden who met his death in 2008. Bennett's work is featured in the book, which serves as a tribute to his memory. With 35 illustrations, the book offers a unique glimpse into the island's past and its people. This book is a poignant and informative exploration of Island Davaar, a place steeped in history and natural beauty.
