Join journalist Ernest Granson as he interviews authors and historians from around the world about history’s most outrageous characters and events.
You’ll raise your eyebrows at the exploits of the preposterous George IV and wild life of King Ludvig II of Bavaria – but you will also marvel at the beauty and bravery of model and war correspondent Lee Miller.
We feel very privileged to have access to our contributors, who join us from all over the world. Not only are they highly qualified historians, writers, authors and journalists, they are also passionate about the events and individuals about whom they’ve researched and chronicled. And, they love to tell their stories, each one as amazing as the next. And you’ll love hearing from them!
