BBC R3 - Garry Lyons' 'Amazonia, A Portrait Of Arthur Rans

BBC R3 - Garry Lyons' 'Amazonia, A Portrait Of Arthur Ransome' Directed by Melanie Harris Broacast February 7, 2010 Coded from a digital source at 128/44.1 Arthur Ransome is best known now for translations of Russian folk tales, and the Swallows and Amazons novels. But once he was far better known for a scandalous libel suit with Lord Alfred Douglas (Oscar Wilde's 'Bosie'), and then for being overseas correspondent in Russia for The Daily News, and then for The Manchester Guardian. He was in Russia during the 1917 revolutions, and the post WWI western interventions in Russia. His political stance made him unpopular with the UK's intelligence services, who seem to have blackmailed him into doing some work for them. At the same time he was posting articles sympathetic to the Bolshevik's. This is some of the story.
