London, UK: B+W, 1993. Soft cover. Very Good/No Jacket. p/b 372 pages, condition is very good. My Scottish Youth is Robert Bruce Lockhart's evocative memoir of his childhood in Victorian and Edwardian Scotland. From his birth in Anstruther in 1887, to his experiences as a public schoolboy in Edinburgh at the turn of the century, Lockhart's delightful account of his early years is a vivid and compelling portrait of life as it appeared to a young boy growing up in Scotland before the First World War. Lockhart's recollections are also a revealing insight into the early life and background of a man who went on to a career of great distinction in the Diplomatic Service in Russia during the First World War; as a banker, writer and journalist between the wars; and as Director General of the Political Warfare Executive at the Foreign Office from 1941-45.
