Launch of New Caithness Book

Thurso High School has just published a book and DVD entitled "Fae Fields to Fuel" and it was launched at a special event last night at the High School. It is about life in Caithness before and after Dounreay arrived. The author of the book is pupil Rachel Tolworthy and she is pictured below with school Rector Dr Fiona Grant. The book and DVD cost a very reasonable £6.99 for both.

As Dounreay's Heritage Officer, I helped in its production by reviewing it and making suggestions for some of the book's contents.

The people who feature in the video were presented with a copy (see bottom picture). John Thurso, MP and Jamie Stone, MSP, both wrote forewords for the book and Jamie attended the launch event.
