Slide 20 - Slide
Adrian Finn: “That’s one of the central problems of history,

Slide 21 - Slide
Tony Webster: "Why did I imagine Brother Jack had seen me coming and was having a bit of fun? Perhaps because in this country shadings of class resist time longer than differentials in age. The Fords had been posher than the Websters back then, and they were jolly well going to stay that way. Or was this mere paranoia on my part?

Tony Webster: "History isn’t the lies of the victors, as
I once glibly assured Old Joe Hunt; I know that now. It’s more the memories of the survivors, most of whom are neither victorious nor defeated."
