EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Skibo Castle: The Scottish Highland Retreat of Andrew Carnegie" Skibo Castle, nestled in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, stands proudly to the west of Dornoch in the county of Sutherland, overlooking the serene Dornoch Firth. This magnificent edifice, completed in 1902, served as the private residence of the renowned industrialist and philanthropist, Andrew Carnegie. Andrew Carnegie, a Scottish-American business magnate, made his fortune in the steel industry before retiring and dedicating the latter part of his life to philanthropy. In search of a tranquil refuge from his bustling business life, he purchased Skibo Castle in 1899. The castle's breathtaking location, with its panoramic views of the firth and the surrounding hills, offered the perfect escape. Carnegie undertook extensive renovations to the castle, transforming it into a modern and comfortable home. He added a golf course, a tennis court, and a hydroelectric power station to the estate, ensuring that Skibo Castle was a self-sufficient and luxurious retreat. Carnegie's connection to Scotland ran deep, and Skibo Castle became a symbol of his Scottish heritage. He was known to host numerous gatherings at the castle, inviting friends, family, and dignitaries from around the world. Among these guests were the likes of Mark Twain, Henry Ford, and Theodore Roosevelt. Today, Skibo Castle stands as a testament to Andrew Carnegie's Scottish roots and his vision for creating a peaceful sanctuary amidst the stunning beauty of the Scottish Highlands. The castle continues to attract visitors from around the world, who come to marvel at its history and the breathtaking views it offers of the Dornoch Firth. This photograph, taken in 1902, captures the essence of Skibo Castle as it was during Carnegie's time – a symbol of Scottish heritage, luxury, and tranquility.
