Dumfries, a market town in south-west Scotland known as the Queen of the South, is the administrative capital of the Dumfries & Galloway region & has a population of almost 32, 000.

Dumfries has a turbulent & sometimes bloody history with links to the Roman occupation of Britain, Bonnie Prince Charlie’s failed Jacobite uprising, the colonisation of America & imperialism. Most famously Scotland’s bard, Robert Burns, spent his final years in Dumfries with many places in the town having connections to the poet.

Its thriving port trade is now a thing of the past & although once one of the largest tweed producers in the world, it has never been a major industrial centre.

One of the greatest players of all time, Duncan Edwards's story is one of tragic heroism. From a working-class Dudley upbringing, Edwards rose to great heights at Manchester United. In only five years, he helped United to win two league championships & to reach the semi-finals of the European Cup. Edwards made his England debut in a game against Scotland at just 18 years & 183 days. He went on to play 18 games for his country, including all four of the qualifying matches for the 1958 World Cup, in which he was expected to be a key player. Sir Bobby Charlton has described him as 'the only player that made me feel inferior' & Terry Venables claimed that, had he lived, it would have been Edwards, not Bobby Moore, who would have lifted the World Cup as captain in 1966. Page-turning & poignant, author James Leighton tells a story of a magnificent sportsman & great man
- the perfect contrast to the headline-grabbing footballers of today.
