Set in the heart of the Outer Hebrides, the Isle of Harris is a landscape rich in culture, history and the Gaelic language. Home to some of Britain's most important wildlife, it is a naturalist's paradise.
In this special DVD we celebrate the people who live and work on the edge of western Europe - from traditional crofters and craftspeople to those developing new skills for the future.
We learn of plans to protect the UK's most impressive raptor - the golden eagle, and hear why the people of North Harris believe it's important to own the land on which they live and work. We also look at some of the age old skills, from boat building to fishing to tweed production, and listen to the music of the Hebrides, from traditional psalm-singing to the heart moving songs of the Gael.
Above all we learn that Harris is an island of immense natural beauty with a strong and ambitious community, determined to protect the old traditions while embracing the benefits of twenty-first century life.
