All Sun Jester's talks and entertainments aim to enlighten, divert and amuse audiences of all sizes and ages.
This is the astounding story of a Bedfordshire man who was involved in almost every major event in the first half of the 20th century. A regular visitor to Cliveden, his friends included Nancy Astor, Winston Churchill, Amy Johnson and Lawrence of Arabia. His influence was far-reaching and yet, sadly, he remains virtually unknown today.
