The Guga Hunters (2008)

Murray chronicles the ancient annual expedition undertaken by men from Ness on the Isle of Lewis to the desolate, wave-lashed rock of Sula Sgeir. Braving Atlantic swells and sheer sea stacks to harvest guga seabirds, this ritual preserves one of Europe's last surviving subsistence traditions. The narrative paints an evocative portrait of oceanic isolation, Gaelic camaraderie, and hazardous maritime lore.
