About Robert Stott
After retiring from three decades of running his food manufacturing business, and two decades of surf life-saving, Robert focused on his other passions, history and biography. In particular, stories of ordinary folk who took remedial action when they saw injustice or abuse or disease. These people are extraordinary: true heroes. Robert connects with these heroes through warm, entertaining stories– what drove them, their weaknesses, their strengths, their inner doubts, and their loves – stories which closely follow historical facts but introduce incidents and characters to represent the themes of their lives, stories which acknowledging their wonderful achievements, lift them out of dry black and white history book pages, and place them in the glorious colour they deserve.
