Описание: This title is now a major Hollywood film starring Robert Carlyle and Billy Boyd. Ian Robertson Hamilton was an unknown law student at Glasgow University until
Christmas Eve 1950. On that night, assisted by Alan Stewart, Gavin Vernon and Kay Matheson, he took the Stone of Destiny from beneath the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey
and in doing so became a Scottish national hero.
In England, however, the act had the opposite effect and a manhunt for the 'vulgar vandals' was started to satisfy the
outrage of the English establishment and bring them to justice. In the end, the Stone was given up, but the gang were not charged.This solitary act set Hamilton on a path for the rest of
his life from which he has not diverged. Although it is now nearly sixty years since that fateful night, it is the actual events surrounding the taking of the Stone which hold people
spellbound when Hamilton recounts them.
In this book, Ian Hamilton has set down the chain of events which led to his decision to go to London, remove the Stone and a
minute-by-minute account of the act and the aftermath. But this is not simply a retelling of a stunt that made nationwide news, it is a book about how a nation's conscience was stirred
by a symbolic act that changed lives of many.
