by COUNTESS VON ARNIM adapted for radio by JOAN O'CONNOR with The Baron recounts the story of his 'English experience': a caravan holiday he and his wife spent in England in the company of some friends. The attractiveness of one of the friends and the cheapness of the trip persuaded the Baron to risk the English weather and to put up'with the lack of English scenery; but such a man, a Prussian officer and a nobleman, is perhaps not an ideal caravanner.
