Or 'Island on the Edge of the World' by Charles MacLean
which is also very good. So many amazing things about the place - my favourite is the fact that some poor bugger had to row from Skye in a tiny boat to collect the rent every year!

haven't read that one yet
I very nearly applied for a job on St Kilda - 6-month archaeological placement...would have been interesting
