Описание: First published by Gollancz, then by Balnain, Maxwells Ghost is a classic account of the life and achievements of Gavin Maxwell, whose work and beliefs have attained an almost mythical status.

Maxwells Ghost caused a stir when it was published in 1976 because it dealt candidly with its subjects homosexual friendships. This aspect of the man had not been common knowledge even among Maxwells close friends, and certainly had not been touched upon in the 1969 film of Ring of Bright Water which Frere always called notably inane or in Maxwells memoir from the previous year, Raven Seek Thy Brother. Frere denied sensationalizing in his book. He said that Maxwell had asked him on his death-bed to write it, and demanded that I write a true and impartial account.

Maxwells Ghost is a searing portrayal of Gavin Maxwell through the destruction of Camusfearna to his final acceptance of the inevitability of his death.
