The Unseen Force: A O Hume, a Life, by Giles Abbott

£3.99

duration – 35m 13s

On the 25th Anniversary of its liberation from British rule India issued commemorative stamps with the face of an Englishman, servant of the very Empire India was celebrating freedom from. This is his story, possibly that of the greatest Englishman you’ve never heard of, Alan Octavian Hume.

This is a historical tale of just how much effort it takes to make positive change happen & of how that change may suddenly come alive & grow into something even greater than you first intended.

Suitable for adults & young people 13+ who enjoy history

Description

Thank you so much for listening.

If you enjoyed this you’ll love Alexander Pope: A Search for Perfection which tells the extraordinary life-story of the 18th Century poet who is, after Shakespeare, the most quoted poet in the English language and whose innovations in garden design shape the way England looks to this day. Or if you just want to take flight on the wings of a myth, there’s loads to explore in the Story Shop Home

Thank you so much for your support, not just for me but for Storytelling itself, and see you again soon!
