The talk on Friday (March 3) by John Nelson as part of Kirkcudbright Book Week, has sold out.
John, who wrote the book On the Trail of a Broken Shoe, will be the Selkirk Arms on High Street at 2pm to talk about the work, which is based on the true story of the last man hanged in Scotland for horse-stealing.
As part of John’s research, he rode a Clydesdale into the Highlands in 2011 following in the footsteps of an ancestor whose horse had been stolen in 1811. The book also includes tales of Kirkcudbrightshire.
