Robert Burns

    25 januari 1759 – 21 juli 1796

    Robert Burns wordt wereldwijd gevierd als de nationale dichter van Schotland, bekend om zijn poëzie en songteksten geschreven in het Schots en toegankelijk Engels. Als sleutelfiguur van de Romantische beweging, inspireerde zijn werk diepgaand de grondleggers van het liberalisme en socialisme. Naast zijn originele composities, droeg Burns significant bij aan het behoud van Schotse volksliederen, die hij vaak bewerkte. Zijn blijvende invloed op de Schotse literatuur en cultuur is een krachtig nalatenschap.

      The Lost Shankly Boy is an enthralling tale of triumph over adversity and hope amid despair. It tells the story of George Scott, a poor boy from a fishing village in Aberdeen, who dreamed of a career in football and ended up rubbing shoulders with one of the game's managerial greats, Bill Shankly. He would assemble a team to rival the famous 'Busby Babes' - his very own 'Shankly Boys'. With Tommy Smith and Chris Lawler already at the club, he would add Gordon Wallace, Bobby Graham and a 15-year-old George Scott - 'the lost Shankly Boy'. Scott provides a fascinating insight into modern Liverpool's formative years and Shankly's Anfield. His is an untold story of a dream crushed and of a career rebuilt in Scottish football and taken to new heights in the South African Premier League. The Lost Shankly Boy speaks to every kid who dreams of football glory. It is a never-say-die tale of passion, commitment and hard work that will resonate with anyone who has ever tasted the pain of rejection - only to rise again and grow stronger.
