Don Roberto, The Adventure of Being Cunninghame Graham by James Jauncey

Don Roberto, The Adventure of Being Cunninghame Graham by James Jauncey

‘A combination of all that is best in memoir, biography and history.’ – Caroline Moorehead 'In this remarkable book... Jauncey has performed the great service of reminding us of a wonderful figure from Scotland’s recent history.' – Alexander McCall Smith It would be impossible to invent Don Roberto today – a fantastic combination of Don Quixote and Sir Gawain, Indiana Jones and the Lone Ranger. He was so multi-faceted, so complex, that every chapter in his story reveals some new and contradictory aspect of his personality. He is best known as the co-founder, with Keir Hardie, of the Scottish Labour Party, and later as the founding president of the Scottish National Party. But in a long and extraordinary life he was many other things besides.

James (Jamie) Jauncey is a Scottish author and great-great-nephew of Don Roberto. He has published five novels and has contributed to several non-fiction titles. He is a co-founder of Dark Angels, the Creative Writing for Business programme, and served for many years on the board of the Edinburgh International Book Festival. He is also a musician.
