‘Bryce has that rare thing, a talent for painting a picture of life then and now, by telling it through the eyes of those who lived there... Those who by word and deed have shaped these two parishes; who have left their mark on the landscape and have changed the way people were able to live their lives.... a history wrapped in intrigue and adventure.’
Elaine Grieve
