Told chronologically, this title tells the story of Burns' life from his family's background in the Mearns to his early death in Dumfries and his influence beyond. It discusses his relationship with God and religion and the dilemma - how did this intensely moral man reconcile this with his notoriously libertarian lifestyle?
