Posted by RLD on 28th September 2008

After successful appearances at both the BLACK ISLE WORDS FESTIVAL and BOAT OF GARTEN BOOK FESTIVAL, where authors Jamie Whittle and Eric MacLeod were extremely well received by large audiences, Sandstone Press now looks forward to the Inverness Book Festival.  The NEIL GUNN LECTURE, organised by the NEIL GUNN TRUST, this year features the broadcaster and author LESLEY RIDDOCH who will be talking about wilderness and development.

Sandstone Press is proud to be the commercial sponsor of this event.  Sandstone’s Managing Director Robert Davidson says, ‘Following our sponsorship of the NAIRN BOOK AND ARTS FESTIVAL and the BOAT OF GARTEN FESTIVAL this is further evidence of the company’s committment to literacy and cultural development, particlarly on our home ground, the Scottish Highlands.  It is a perfect complement to our international approach which will be further evidenced on November 1st with the publication of A BEND IN THE NILE by Chris McIvor’.
