Wonderful interview! I would love to visit - preferably on one of your tours! Thank you for this, Phillips.

I can't wait to read the book. I have pre-ordered it and am really looking forward to it making its way down to New Zealand 😊

Do a book on the Lost Colony of Roanoke.

Obviously you read the book because you showed no surprise ( well, I guess your an expert) that cardinal wolsey didn’t own Hampton court palace! So stunning that it’s not more known. I’d always thought that he’d built it ( something to,do with the chimneys) and Henry thought he was getting uppity and trying to outdo his king. That, to me, was really stunning news. My husband and I visited in 2003 and we just so well treated, my husband used a walker and they helped us just so much. Thank you, enjoyed this immensely. 🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

Garth, How did you find the evidence for the book? Where you allowed to view documents at the palace?
