Synopsis* The first biography about the author of 'The Burglar's Bedside Companion' * By the author of The Road to Corbyn Troubador 2016 * Major UK publicity and marketing campaign., The Remarkable Life of Jago Stone Tells of the Life and Time of the Prize-Winning Burglar-Turned-International Artist, Jago Stone (1928-88). It is a Fascinating story of a Charismatic Rebel Who enjoyed tilting at the windmills of conformity. Book jacket., The Remarkable Life of Jago Stone tells of the life and times of the prize-winning burglar-turned-international artist, Jago Stone (1928-88). It is a fascinating story of a charismatic rebel who enjoyed tilting at the windmills of conformity. This is not, however, a conventional biography. As the author writes: 'I have chosen to tell Jago's story through the filter of my own journey of discovery since 1976. The book does not have a linear plot; as new material has come to light through my research, my central role has been to bring this material together in a coherent and readable way. This is a real-time detective story that I am inviting you, the reader, to share.' Scores of homes in both England and the U.S.A. have one or more Jago Stone paintings proudly displayed. Jago's travels as the 'Gypsy Artist' brought him into contact with many English families and the families of American aircrew stationed in the UK who took their Jagos back across the Pond. Jago lived - and through his art still lives - on both sides of the Atlantic., I have chosen to tell Jago's story through the filter of my own journey of discovery since 1976. The book does not have a linear plot; as new material has come to light through my research, my central role has been to bring this material together in a coherent and readable way. This is a real-time detective story that I am inviting you, the reader, to share. This fascinating, unconventional biography traces the life of the prize-winning burglar-turned-international-artist Jago Stone (1928-88). A charismatic rebel who tilted at the windmills of conformity, Stone was also an interesting character, a restless soul, and a talented artist whose watercolors and oil paintings deserve a wider audience. Rob Donovan's in-depth research expands on Stone's own telling in The Burglar's Bedside Companion: Astounding True-Life Escapades of a Super Crook , providing a comprehensive portrait of the life and art of the robber-artist as well as the complex and changing twentieth-century-world in which he lived. A rich, illuminating reading experience, The Remarkable Life of Jago Stone is compelling and true, and a story worthy of discovery and celebration.
