Book excerpt: Burray is one of the southern islands of Orkney, situated in the natural harbour of Scapa Flow. On a world scale it is literally a dot in the ocean, but even such a small place has a story to tell. From the early brochs which gave the island its name through the kelp and herring industries to its strategic importance in two world wars, this is the history of Burray through the ages.
