Isle of Rust: Portrait of Lewis & Harris

Combining Alex Boyd’s stunning photography with
Jonathan Meades’ sparky and caustic prose, Isle of
Rust presents a diff erent look at Lewis and Harris,
the largest of the islands in the Outer Hebrides. It
is more than a travel guide. It explores the inner
depths of a landscape that outlasts people.
Boyd returns to the island, spending two years
documenting the stunning landscapes of the Outer
Hebrides, a strange, sometimes rusty paradise.
His photography captures the rugged and austere
beauty of the place, from the bays and mountains
of Harris, to the moorland shacks of Lewis.
