I agree Toni!! I'm part way through it (sorry Bob - a extra hectic life in recent times got in the way of good intentions) and it IS VERY WELL WRITTEN. I'm actually taking it with me on vacation so I can finish it :) Another question Bob - can I forward the link to Ron Steenvoorden to be included in www.islayinfo.com history section?

It's the best accounting of the actual journey that I've read. I asked him if I could pass this on to the Islay group, in case some of you wanted to order a copy. Here is his response: " Yes, it would be great to have you post something on the Islay list. And I could probably arrange sales of physical book. However, it would be much easier to have you point interested people at a free copy of the book, available for downloading at http://www.mngt.waikato.ac.nz/bmcqueen/WEBDOCS/mcqueen/index.htm I'd rather get the free electronic file out there and distributed (and forwarded) to as many as are interested rather than trying to make any money to offset printing costs of the physical copy. Bob" So here you go! A freeby worth a million. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did.
