Holiday Episode

Andrew Roberts joins me to chat about his creation, the Cliveden Literary Festival. This is the foremost literary event of the year, and is on over the weekend of the 15th & 16th October. The festival involves three wonderful attractions for AoH listeners, history, writers and books.

We chat about authors that will appear, talks at prior festivals, and Andrew's favourite discussion so far.

This chat took place before the horrific attack in upstate New York, and my thoughts are with Sir Salman and his family.
