Our regular monthly talk willl begin at 2:30pm and our guest speaker is Tony Eaton, who will be telling us about The Duke of Windsor's wartime dealings with the Nazis, which is one of the Royal Family's most closely guarded secrets. Sensitive records remain embargoed - protected by the 100 year non-disclosure rule accorded uniquely to the Royal Archives. However, declassified German files strongly suggest that, when his country was facing its greatest crisis, the Duke was pursuing personal and political agendas that were totally at odds with Britain's wartime objectives.

Was this deliberate or was he being manipulated - a pawn caught up in a much wider game? In this new talk Tony Eaton assesses the facts and the rumours surrounding this hidden part of British history.
