Will Swales, Marshal-General Plantagenet Harrison: Richmondshire’s fake prince of the royal blood

A breath-taking biography of a son of Whashton who was the author of the prodigious and controversial genealogical study The History of Yorkshire Part 1: The Wapentake of Gilling West. The talk will describe the life-long antics of a giant of a man with a giant intellect and an unshakeable self-belief that sustained his enthusiasm through repeated failure as a global military adventurer and international fraudster.
