Potter's Wheel

Peter Day reports on the lessons the rest of the world can learn from California.

The Wonderful
Adventures of Mrs Seacole in Many Lands Mary Seacole 's autobiography, a bestseller when it was originally published in 1857, chronicles her travels and experiences for a Victorian public. Bom in Jamaica in 1805, Mary was a notable figure in the Crimean War and deserves to stand beside Florence
Nightingale but is seldom accorded even a footnote today. Yet, this remarkable lady earned medals for her bravery and won the admiration of the Victorian world she lived in. Read by Joan-Ann Maynard.
