From An Inhabited Rock |
Living on the edge of precipitous rocky cliffs above the North Sea, however did orphaned Christina Sutherland and her brothers and sisters survive?
Their rock-strewn hamlet of Badbea filled up as the Scottish Highlands’ lairds evicted their tenants to farm sheep.
John McLeod’s parents were evicted but he was put to work by the laird as a shepherd.
John and Christina married and were sent inland to the marshy peatlands of Rumsdale to manage a new sheep farm.
John McLeod and Christina Sutherland
They were my great, great grandparents.
In a stunning new graphic novel biography, From An Inhabited Rock by Christina Baldwin, the words and the pictures tell this true story.
