In Eccentric Wealth, Alastair Scott traces the life of Lancashire
industrialist Sir George Bullough in this absorbing biography which
explores his family's connection with the Hebridean island of Rum,
particularly the building of Kinloch Castle, the most intact
preserve of Edwardian highliving to be found in Britain. Based on
new information, the book offers a fascinating insight into the
life and times of one of the great eccentrics of his age, including
the Bullough myths and scandals which continue to make
extraordinary reading more than a hundred years later.
