Viva Cunninghame Graham! Global Scot, Political Radical, Writer's Writer

Saturday 18 August, 13:30-15:00, Committee Room 3, FREE

Robert Bontine Cunninghame Graham (1852-1936) "For the miner and the gaucho, the drover and the Sioux / A radical Scots aristo whose deeds of daring do / Championed the people, condemned imperial shame / From Gartmore to the pampas, Viva Cunninghame Graham." This event, chaired by Rob Gibson MSP - with panellists, writer and broadcaster Billy Kay; literary editor John C McIntyre; and author Jenni Calder - will explore Graham's multi-cultural legacy and the relevance of 'Don Roberto' for today's Scotland and our wider international reach.
