Am Baile seems to be the main settlement on Eriskay, it has a pub called 'Am Politician' after the S.S. Politician, an 8000 ton cargo ship carrying a vast quantity of whisky which foundered nearby the island, resulting in the famous "Whisky Galore" story: See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Politician
