About this product

Product Information

This is the story of the much-loved Puffer and its service to be the people of the Scottish Highlands and Islands. With the help of old photographs, this book describes the evolution of the puffer from its early roots as a timber-built horse-drawn barge into the vessel which inspired Neil Munro's Para Handy Tales . It also chronicles the closing day of this unique West Highland trade and includes a passionate argument for reassessment of transport structures in Scotland for the sake of our environment and of our rural communities. The book details of the daily lives of those who worked on these vital vessels, with their cargoes of coal, whiskey, seaweed, tractors and other necessities.
