Britain's Canal Heritage - Roger Butler
Haslemere Festival 2023
This talk provides a colourful introduction to the secret heritage of our 2000-mile canal network - only the National Trust and the Church of England have more listed buildings than our inland waterways. The very wide range of features includes heroic engineering, unique buildings and quirky landmarks, historic boats, interesting landscapes and even contemporary art. Pioneering engineers built our canals with energy and imagination and highlights include special cottages and clever warehouses; sweeping aqueducts and eye-catching lock flights; deep tunnels and unusual bridges - plus one or two 21st century innovations such as the amazing Falkirk Wheel.

Monty at Amesbury - Chris Harrison
Просмотров 132Месяц назад
Haslemere Festival 2023 How having a home at Amesbury School in Hindhead “was the chief factor in enabling me to do what I did towards winning the war”. Monty the man, was conceited, impossible, and loathed by many, especially those to whom he reported. He fell out with some of his staunchest supporters, yet was loved by his men and was arguably the finest field commander of the twentieth centu...
Love and Marriage in the Middle Ages - Dr Jane Clayton
Просмотров 78Месяц назад
Haslemere Festival 2023 Love and marriage, for medieval women, as revealed in the letters of the Paston family of Norfolk, were very different experiences from those of women today. An upwardly-mobile gentry family, the Pastons educated their sons for careers in the law, but expected their daughters to augment the family’s status through advantageous arranged marriages. The Paston Letters tell ...

Haslemere Festival 2021 The King James Bible, or as it is more commonly known in Britain, the Authorised Version, through its beauty and grace of language has helped to shape our culture.

    An exceptional story of one of Britain's and the world's finest regiments. My Dad was in the 1st/6th Battalion from Bermondsey, London as a signal sergeant during WW2. Over to Belgium in the BEF, rescued from Dunkirk, then on to El Alamein. Wounded in North Africa, recovered and went on to Italy, then D Day +1 through Normandy, Holland and ended up stationed in Berlin. We will remember them

    I enjoyed the lecture but I'm very disappointed that you didn't include the importance of Tom Crean to the expedition. Without him shackelton most likely would not have made it to safety and creen was also mainly responsible for getting the rescue from South America, not shackelton!

    Three Irishmen were among those who took the James Caird lifeboat to South Georgia. Tim McCarthy was one of them. On his return to England Tim joined in the war effort and was killed in 1917 when his ship was sunk with all hands. He was the first of the Shackleton crew to die. The last survivor of the expedition, Lionel Greenstreet, died in 1979.

  • @jeanhartely
    @jeanhartely 2 года назад

    Shackleton was more interested in saving lives than being the "first". That's why he's a hero to me. It takes real courage to turn back less than 100 miles from the prize.

    There is an excellent book by Wilson McOrist called Shackleton's Heroes. It's about the Ross sea party, their endeavours and heroics, and the sad demise of Aeneas Mackintosh, Victor Hayward and Arnold Spencer Smith. It also shows that Frank Wild's brother Harry was a true hero too. Greatness ran in the family there.

  • @unavailable2204
    @unavailable2204 3 года назад

    I feel wholly opposed to any suggestion that Polar medals should be awarded posthumously, and by people entirely unqualified to make that decision. Shackleton was there at the time. The men were employed by him and totally under his command. It was his decision to award Polar medals to those he saw fit based upon his own personal experience. Any moves to right a perceived wrong is an abhorrence in my opinion.

    Orde-Lees was dumped on Shackleton because his commanding officer thought he was lazy and worthless. A hallmark of english meritocracy. McNish was just a dipshit that should have kept his mouth shut.

    • @stevescott-fawcett9323

      Disagree about Chippy McNish. He probably saved the expedition on at least two main occasions
