Diplomat, Author, Grocer: the remarkable story of Ranald MacDonell CBE
October 23rd , 2:30 pm
Lingfield & Dormansland Community Centre, High St, Lingfield, RH7 6AB
Talk by: Helen Baggott
This talk will be via Zoom and reveals the real-life exploits of a man who became embroiled in the tumultuous years of the early 20th century when the East battled with the West, when oil became the ultimate prize. From the oilfields of Baku to semi-retirement in the 1930s as a grocer by the sea in Dorset, the story of the 21st Chief of Glengarry is an adventurous and incredible tale. It continues into the next generation with West End theatre roles and distinguished war-time service. The talk is fully illustrated and provides an insight into the life and times of a man and his family that reaches around the UK and the world.
