Immortalised in the award-winning film, Chariots of Fire, Eric
Liddell (1902-1945) was Scotland's greatest track athlete. He won
bronze and gold medals at the Paris Olympic Games in 1924 but
turned his back on sporting glory to become a Christian missionary
in China. It is less well-known that Eric Liddell was also an
international rugby player who represented Scotland seven times in
the early 1920s. Published to celebrate the centenary of his first
Scottish appearance, this fascinating book tells the largely untold
story of Eric Liddell's rugby career. It begins with his early days
as a schoolboy player at Eltham College, and then as a senior with
Edinburgh University, Edinburgh and Scotland. Illustrated with rare
archive images and memorabilia, this book recalls famous days in
Scottish rugby and a significant but little-known aspect in the
life of a Scottish sporting icon.
