A charming and rare memoir of estate life in Sutherland during the early part of the 20th century. One of the first keepers at Shinness Esate was John Fraser. In the 1970s, his daughter Iby wrote down some of her recollections for the interest of the Fletcher family, who acquired the estate in 1941.
