This is the third book of Ron Ferguson's 'Herald' columns, following on the success of 'Donald Dewer ate my hamster', and 'Hitler was a vegetarian'. His eleven books range from the cult bestseller about Cowdenbeath Football Club, 'Black diamonds and the blue brazil', through acclaimed biographies of Geoff Shaw and George Macleod, to the anarchic 'The reluctant reformation of Clarence McGonigall'. This irreverent Church of Scotland minister-turned-full time writer has been shortlisted for the McVities Scottish Writer of the Year award, as well as twice being a runner-up as Columnist of the Year in the Scottish Press Awards. The Orkney based electronic crofter's popular weekly column in 'The Herald' is known to cause tears of laughter and of sadness, sometimes within the same piece. In his wide ranging articles, Kirkwall's Kierkegaard turns his quirky gaze on politics, religion, sex, football, the media and contemporary culture.
