Happy to see the back cover to my book this morning on Amazon – not least because it features a photo taken on my honeymoon: St Moluag’s Chapel on Raasay, where many generations of MacLeods are interred. The chapel doorway you see me standing in was built in the 1200s, and was already ‘unroofed and ruinous’ by the time Johnson and Boswell visited in 1773. And so it has remained.
