   I think that the 'Edge..' comes from a book title.
   I've read a couple of books about the place a few years ago.
   Very interesting if somewhat sad history. Was the most
   remote inhabited part of the UK for ~300 years until 1929
   when the whole population was evaculated.
   It's very difficult to get to. Only a few military types
   live there and it's only possible to visit as a tourist via
   a very expensive sailing trip.
   Another possibility is with a working party of the National
   Trust of Scotland - if they still run them.
   Best of luck!

   When your in Scotland you might want to enquire with Oban
   tourist board. This small port town on the west coast is
   one of the main departure points for trips to St Kilda
