Wicked Men and Fools by Brian D Osborne
This anthology ranges from the criminal mind through treason, feud and foray to detection and law enforcement and, finally, judgement.
Neil Munro was born in 1863. He followed a career in journalism, eventually becoming editor of the Glasgow Evening News. He achieved great success as a poet and novelist, writing masterpieces of historical fiction such as John Splendid and The New Road as well as the humorous tales of Para Handy and Jimmy Swan. Neil Munro died in 1930. Brian Osborne and Ronald Armstrong have written and edited numerous books, including Birlinn's definitive edition of Neil Munro's Para Handy and the Erchie and Jimmy Swann stories. They also edited Echoes of the Sea: A Scottish Sea Anthology, Mungo's City: A Glasgow Anthology, Cradle of the Scots: An Argyll Anthology and Wicked Men and Fools: A Scottish Crime Anthology (all published by Birlinn). Brian Osborne has also written three biographies, including The Ingenious Mr Bell: A Life of Henry Bell. Brian lives in Kirkintilloch and Ronnie in Cardross.
