A Last Wild Place is Tomkies' bestseller - the book for which he will be remembered more than for any of the other eight he has written about the remote Highland lochside cottage and its surrounding hills where he has lived alone for twenty years without electricity, gas, telephone or postal service, studying the wildlife.
