Show notes

*SORRY FOR THE AUDIO QUALITY*

Harry Perry Robinson wasn't a name we were immediately familiar with but when we read the text about his biography, we were intrigued:

"The life of Harry Perry Robinson-a born adventurer, a master of reinvention, and the ultimate witness to history. From a stint in the gold mines and helping to elect a US president, to the First World War and the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb."
