zz Trials of Mary Johnsdaughter, The (Discontinued)

Almost all Shetlanders in 1773 lived a hand to mouth existence, even in good years. But, for the inhabitants of Waas, the unexpected arival in October of a shipload of poor Caithness emigrants bound for North America changed their lives dramatically. This is an authentic, if fictionalised, retelling of events, we are transported to that place and that time. We see through the life of a young Waas lass, Mary Johnsdaughter.
