Robert Burns

    25 de enero de 1759 – 21 de julio de 1796

    Robert Burns es celebrado mundialmente como el poeta nacional de Escocia, reconocido por su poesía y letras escritas en escocés e inglés accesible. Figura clave del movimiento romántico, su obra inspiró profundamente a los fundadores del liberalismo y el socialismo. Más allá de sus composiciones originales, Burns contribuyó significativamente a la preservación de canciones folclóricas escocesas, a menudo adaptándolas. Su perdurable influencia en la literatura y cultura escocesas sigue siendo un legado poderoso.

      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.
