About This Author

Jack Hastie is a retired lecturer in History and Scottish Mountain leader. He has published a number of articles on historical and humanist subjects. He describes himself as a sceptic and a rebel who feels he must have got it wrong if he ever finds himself agreeing with the majority. His imagination spans continents and centuries. Never far from his writing is an awareness of evil which he sometimes, but not always manages to transcend.
