Beautifully illustrated book
If you want to buy only one book on the Isle of Arran this is probably the one to go for. Though it is not as comprehensive as some reference books, it gives a good overview of the history and geography of this most attractive Scottish island. The colour photographs are excellent; it would make a very good souvenir of a visit.

This book shows the best of Arran; great photos, good info.
This is more than just a guide book, it tells you all you need to know about the island. The photography is stunning too, so if you're a confirmed fan or even if you've never been, buy this book!
