About the Author

Stewart Ross's roots are unashamedly Scottish. Family legend traces descent back to James of the Iron Belt - and the writer's great-grandfather was a Scottish publisher, poet and author of some repute.

Stewart Ross is a professional author who has written more than 60 books on history and politics. He holds three degrees, two British and one American, and has taught at universities in Britain, the United States and the Middle East. Four of his books are published by House of Lochar.
