Tulliallan: Four Lads O' Pairts

This book contains the stories of four exceptional people who were born in Kincardine-on-Forth, Scotland. Sir James Wylie (1768 - 1854) was surgeon to three Czars of Russia. Sir James Dewar (1842 - 1923) was President of the Chemical Society and Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution (a post held previously by Michael Faraday); Robert Maule J.P. (1832 - 1901) and his son Sir Robert (1852 - 1931) were successful entrepreneurs who established and ran 'Maules', one of the most successful early department stores on Edinburgh's famous Princes Street. 100% of profits from this book go to Kincardine Local History Group a non-profit community-run organisation whose aim is to research, preserve, and promote the town's history for the benefit of future generations.
