On the Other Side of Sorrow: by James Hunter - 2014 Nature and People in the Scottish Highlands

The author examines the dispute between Highlanders, who developed a strong environmental awareness countless generations before other Europeans, and conservtionists, whose thinking owes much to the romantic ideals of the 19 century. He also suggests a new way of dealing with the problem, advocating drastic land-use changes and the repopulation of empty glens. Notes, Bibliography, Index, 280 pages.
