Christopher Sykes looks at the lives of the four remarkable sons of the Bishop of Manchester, EDMUND KNOX: EVOE, humorist and Editor of Punch; DILLY classicist and cryptographer who helped to solve Enigma in the Second World War; WILFRED, an Anglican clergyman who took his faith with saintly literalness; and the youngest, RONALD, who became a Catholic and translated the Bible single-handed. The sons are now the subject of a biography by Penelope Fitz Gerald daughter of Evoe, who along with Ronnie was known to Christopher Sykes.
