Large octavo,266 pp.,colour photographs, text illustrations by John Busby , fine copy in dustwrapper. The National Trust for Scotland is one of the largest landowners in Scotland owning 300 square miles, or 1 % of its countryside. Half of the Trust land is designated for its natural heritage in one form or another, several properties are National Nature Reserves, one is a Council of Europe Diploma site and another is a World Heritage Site for its natural heritage - the highest accolade that can be bestowed. Where are these properties? What are the Trust's credentials for natural heritage management? What sort of management is being carried out on these properties and why? How does this management compare to that carried out by other conservation bodies and private estate owners in Scotland? Could, or should, the Trust be doing more and does the Trust expend its resources equally across its cultural and natural heritage responsibilities? Finally, as landlord, how does the Trust regard the role of the local community within its properties and will Land Reform change this role? These and other questions are looked into in this book in an examination of a cross-section of the Trust's Highlands and Islands properties from Mar Lodge Estate to St Kilda and from Ben Lawers to Fair Isle. The opening chapter briefly describes the history of the Trust and discusses some of the general countryside management issues of the day with which the Trust has to grapple. Then follow chapters on ten properties which look critically and intimately at their management. The final chapter sums up where the Trust stands today as a natural heritage manager in Scotland and suggests that there is an opportunity ahead for radical change.

In addition to describing the wildlife in all its forms, the book pays attention to the recent effects of commercial fishing, oil production, and the inevitable clash of traditional and newer industries. It critically observes the costs and benefits of a modern economy, both to the people and the natural scene. Written for the general reader and keen naturalist, this book is lavishly illustrated with photographs, maps, and diagrams and graced with evocative sketches by John Busby."
