The Flying Scotsman - The Eric Liddell Story (Paperback, Uk Ed.)

Back home he abandoned fame and sporting glory to become a missionary in China, where he braved the frontline perils of one of the world's ugliest wars and died in Japanese internment. He inspired the Oscar-winning movie Chariots of Fire and is still revered in China today.

In this revised and updated edition of her best-selling biography, journalist Sally Magnusson asks: 'What are we to make of a life that comprehended both drive and serenity, will to achieve and the grace to give in, absolute principles and utter humanity, charisma and ordinariness?'

In pursuit of the answer, she uncovers a story which has everything: sport, war, romance and faith.
