summary | The Heidelberg press of 1939, delivered before WWII broke out, was the last working press until war commenced. Gary's father, Walter Francis, had to compensate the British Government for its cost since it was delivered after WWII began. However, it's uncertain if this payment reached the German authorities. The narrative focuses on Gary, a sociable and generous individual, who shares anecdotes with visitors, including:
1. A Roman sarcophagus discovered in the Roman Road. 2. A woman who served as inspiration for Eliza Doolittle in George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion. 3. Gary's steam train adventures in India. 4. An invitation to the National Physics Laboratory during the fifties, where one could see an early computer, comparable in size to four houses, capable of playing chess. |
