In Leugh Mi, Anna Macleod talks to two guests in each episode about their favourite books and also finds out more about their lives.

In this episode, Shona Henderson talks about her reading while growing up on the Isle of Harris, and also the well-thumbed book that had guided her up many a Scottish mountain.

John Norman Macdonald also grew up in Harris, but he also be talks about the time he spent on a Kibbutz in Israel during the first Gulf War. His book choices also reveal his interest in Highland and American history.

In addition to discussing their favourite books, each guest has chosen a book for the other to read, and we'll find out in the programme whether they enjoyed it or not! Show less
