Revisionist who co-authored a rebuttal of the official narrative of the origins of World War I. | |
Jim Macgregor is a Scottish former GP. He was raised in a cottage in the grounds of Erskine Hospital for the War Disabled, and as a result developed a life-long interest in the origins of war. With Gerry Docherty, he is co-author of Hidden History a meticulously researched and documented rebuttal of the official narrative of the origins of World War I.
On his involvement with the production of Hidden History he says:
"Our two sons graduated from Glasgow University on the same day and it just so happened we both went to the same pub for a drink. They brought the parents together and I discovered at that point that Gerry had written Lie of the Land. We got chatting and I told him I'd written an anti-war novel (The Iboga Visions) and had been mulling over a book about the First World War. It was a huge project and going to be too much for me so I invited Gerry to co-author, and he agreed - and we've been knocking ten bells out of each other since."....
"This war was abhorrent to humanity and the whole decency of mankind. There was no glory about it. This was a disgusting slaughter these men had been put through. That was very much the sentiment of the men in Erskine. The odd one or two used to strut about with the medals on but the majority looked and laughed at that." [1]
