A passion for…
Baseline Research is led by Ian Leith, a North of Scotland based researcher and writer. A native of Caithness, he has been involved with the history and heritage of the area for many years. As well as being a Trustee of various heritage organisations and the writer of books and articles.
As a qualified Librarian, Ian has gained the many skills required in terms of finding and organising information. Following this Ian worked as a professional researcher in a number of corporate and community projects. Ian worked for and later subcontracted with the Aberdeen-based research and development company BusinessLab.
While some of his working life has been in the corporate world, Ian has always continued an interest in and been involved in researching the history of the North of Scotland, in particular.
This has ultimately led to the writing and publishing of various articles and specifically the books The Man Who Went To Farr and Caithness to Patagonia.
The North of Scotland abounds with history, not always well known to wider audiences and Ian continues to bring these events, stories and people to a more prominent place.
