Wild Harbour
Wild Harbour by Ian Macpherson tells of the world destroyed by a future war, forebodings of which were already discernible in Europe. A young couple must live their lives in the wild Scottish highlands when war overtakes their home. Excerpt: "THIS MORNING I said to Terry, 'I thought I heard guns through the night.' 'Were you awake too?' she asked. Even before she spoke, as soon as the words were out of my mouth I was sorry I spoke, and hastened to say: 'That was funny, both of us lying quiet not to disturb the other.' I knew by the way she looked at me that she was not deceived."

Scotsman's Odyssey
'A Scotsman's Odyssey' is a riveting account of four decades of sea adventures and exploration, written so vividly you can feel the salt spray in your face.Ian's maritime chronicle has something for everyone. His love of sailing has taken him to out-of-the-way places ranging from the sub-arctic Faroes Islands to the remote Barrier Reef islands in tropical Australia. 'A Scotsman's Odyssey' is a book as much about voyaging in the imagination as on the waves. It inspires cruising yachtsmen and yachtswomen to sail beyond their native shores, young readers to seize opportunities to sail on Ocean Youth Trust voyages, armchair sailors to journey to northern Europe and ancient Venetian ports in Greece and Croatia. Nature lovers will enjoy Ian's encounters with basking sharks, dolphins, killer and humpbacked whales, and even salt-water crocodiles.
