Book excerpt: On 11th October 1915 General Sir Ian Hamilton, commanding Gallipoli, received a cable from the SofS for War (Kitchener) asking for an estimate of the losses which would be involved in an evacuation of the peninsula. Hamilton regarded such a step as unthinkable and replied accordingly the next day. On 16th October he received another cable recalling him to London where he was told HMG wanted a fresh, unbiassed opinion, from a responsible commander, upon the question of an early evacuation. The man chosen was General Sir C.C.Monro, then C-in-C Third Army in France. Hamilton never received another operational command. This, then, is his final despatch, written in London and dated 11th December 1915, and in it he describes the operations on Gallipoli in July and August .

Book excerpt: Literary biography is an endlessly fascinating form, not least because of the fierce controversies that attend the question of how much of a writer's real life ought to be related to readers. Ian Hamilton, a first-rate biographer who encountering his share of adversity in writing the life of J.D. Salinger, is the perfect chronicler of such controversies in this brilliant study, first published in 1992, which charts the course of literary biography from Donne and Shakespeare to Plath and Larkin.'Such a compelling read.' Antonia Fraser, Times'Lively and informative, powerfully and humorously written.' Anthony Burgess, Observer'Surely the funniest book ever written on the doom-laden issue of posthumous literary fame.'

Download or read book Stone of Destiny written by Ian Hamilton and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Scottish national hero tells the story of a daring exploit that rocked Great Britain—and the love of country that inspired it. Ian Robertson Hamilton was an unknown law student at Glasgow University—until Christmas Eve 1950. On that night, assisted by Alan Stuart, Gavin Vernon, and Kay Matheson, he took the Stone of Destiny from beneath the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey. The stone, once used in the coronation of Scottish monarchs, had been taken nearly seven centuries earlier by Edward I, and its recovery was a major symbolic victory, making Hamilton a Scottish national hero. In England, however, the act had the opposite effect, and a manhunt for the “vulgar vandals” was launched to satisfy the outrage of the English establishment and bring the perpetrators to justice. In the end, the Stone was given up, but the gang was not charged. This solitary act set Hamilton on a path for the rest of his life—from which he has not diverged. Decades after that fateful night, the story still holds people spellbound when Hamilton recounts it. In this book, Ian Hamilton sets down the chain of events that led to his decision to go to London and remove the Stone and provides a minute-by-minute account of the act and the aftermath. The basis of a major Hollywood film starring Robert Carlyle and Billy Boyd, The Stone of Destiny is not simply a retelling of a stunt that made nationwide news. It is a book about how a nation’s conscience was stirred by a symbolic act that changed the lives of many.
