The 'monster' that allegedly inhabits the waters takes a back seat in this enjoyable study of Loch Ness. Tracing its origins to the geological events of 400 million years ago, Katharine Stewart explores the loch's early history and people and its flora and fauna as well as more recent events such as the building of Thomas Telford's Caledonian Canal and the short-lived railway.
'The Story of Loch Ness'is written by a local and that shows. Between lines you can read about the opinion of Katharine Stewart, the author, and the local community. It is a detailled description about a lake, which has more to offer than just the monster that's been hidding in it. http://primaverita.hubpages.com/t/31bc52
