White Island by John Lister-Kaye
The story of how John was invited to Eilean Bàn by Maxwell to help write a book on British mammals and to help convert the island into a private zoo for birds and mammals of the West Highlands.

The title Ring of Bright Water is taken from the poem 'The Marriage of Psyche', by Kathleen Raine (1908-2003). Raine talks of her relationship with Maxwell in the third volume of her autobiography, The Lion's Mouth (1977). Some of Kathleen's poems can be found online.

A stone monument to Maxwell can be found at Sandaig (Camusfearna), positioned in the location of his old writing desk. There is also a monument to the otter Edal, who died in the fire at Camusfearna (see Sandaig Walk).

Some information on the film version of Ring of Bright water (directed by Jack Couffer) can be found at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064893/
