4: The Most Amazing Story a Man Ever Lived to Tell with Nigel Graham , Clifford Norgate and Alan Thompson In August 1898 the Wide World Magazine began publishing an account of the astonishing adventures of Louis de Rougemont. The first instalment ended with the hero, shipwrecked two years before, watching from his desert island as a small catamaran appeared from over the horizon. Further instalments were eagerly awaited. The story tested the credulity of his readers. Certainly it was, as the magazine declared, 'the most amazing story a man ever lived to tell', but was it true? Producer ALAN HAYDOCK Stereo (R)
