Welcome to the John Galt Society which exists to promote the appreciation and study of the life and works of this great Scottish writer and pioneer of Canadian development (1779-1839).
See below for some pictures of the unveiling of the replacement bust of Galt on Greenock Esplanade that took place today. The unveiling was carried out by Inverclyde Provost Robert Moran and the bust was sculpted by Wayne Darnell. Among a crowd of about 50 people there were representatives of Irvine Burns Club, Irvine Lasses Burns Club and our Chair, Gerry Carruthers.
