| Summary | "Donald Ross of Heimra" by William Black is a novel written in the late 19th century. This second volume continues the exploration of the intertwined lives of its characters, particularly focusing on Donald Ross, a significant figure whose actions and interactions impact the rural community around him. The story delves into themes of social justice, personal responsibility, and the complexities surrounding land ownership and local rights. The opening of this volume sets an atmospheric tone as it introduces Coinneach Breac and Calum-a-Bhata, two men awaiting the arrival of a steamer at the pier. Their conversation ranges from eerie local folklore to practical matters of life on the island. The scene transitions to the arrival of Donald Ross, who engages with the residents and confronts challenges regarding their rights and livelihoods. Through dialogues and encounters, the narrative intricately weaves personal dynamics and social issues, hinting at both tensions and potential alliances within the community, particularly surrounding land disputes and the looming presence of authority represented by figures like Mr. Purdie.
