Caithness Field Club Bulletin
2005
Vol 7 No 1

Editorial
Welcome to Volume 7 of the Bulletin. Volume 1 Number 1 was published in April 1973 when Brian Hughes was the first Editor. It has been published regularly since then with some hiccups in the numbering system and some variations of timing of publication. Much of the sequence is now reproduced on the Web thanks to www.caithness.org and there is a lot of fascinating reading there. I think it is a very successful contribution to knowledge about Caithness and interest in it.
Your contributions to continue this tradition are very welcome.
