Description - Diary, 1851 by John Munro Mackenzie

This diary of John Munro Mackenzie describes, in detail, life on the island of Lewis as seen through the eyes of the Chamberlain of the Lews to Sir James Matheson. Mackenzie records each day of that year, his work, whom he meets, places visited, matters discussed and his regular meetings with Lord and Lady Matheson. The book should be of interest to all those who wish to know more of the history of Lewis. Is should also be of use as a contemporary record of a time from which few written records survive.
