Until, a century later, the threads of this remarkable family are finally drawn together again, in a book that is at once a superb documentary account and a moving tribute to a generation.
If you are a Scot by birth, descent, or adoption, this book chronicling the Scottish men and women who changed the world will make you proud. If you are not Scottish, it will make you will wish you were.
