Saturday Oct 22, 2022
Today is the third instalment of my series examining the life of General Sir Hugh Gough. One of the pre-eminent men of British military history.
Historian Chris Brice joins me on the show again and explains Gough’s performance during the 1st Opium war in China - an interesting war that, full-disclosure, I currently know absolutely nothing about.
Chris does though as he has written a book on Gough - called Brave as a Lion which can be purchased from Helion.co.uk - listeners of this show will also receive a 20 percent discount by putting in the code LION2020 at checkout.
