Book excerpt: This is largely a sporting biography of Kenneth Grant Macleod (1888-1967). Macleod in his day was an outstanding track runner, played county cricket with Lancashire CCC, and international rugby football for Scotland, all before the First World War. The book covers in depth all Macleod's sports performances from his school days. It also provides details of his family background, war-time experiences, subsequent family life and immigration to South Africa in the 1930s. K. G. Macleod was inducted to the Scottish Sports Hall of Fame in 2010. He is considered one of Scotland's greatest ever rugby players and sporting all-rounders.
