Coronation Year July 22 4 FAMOUS HAVE BEEN THE REIGNS OF OUR QUEENS The first Elizabethan age was the age of seafaring exploration and hazard. Today, in the second Elizabethan era, the hazard has been largely taken out of sea voyages by the inventions of Marconi.

His return, some eleven months later, caused a worldwide stir as he airmailed himself home and become the first and only person ever to fly the Pacific Ocean in a crate. His story is currently being made into a feature film and is the subject of a BBC Television documentary. In 1962, when air-travel was in its infancy, a nineteen-year-old boy who felt trapped in Melbourne, Australia, made up his mind that he was going to return to his homeland in the United Kingdom. He was prevented from doing so by both lack of documentation and the funds required. Putting an idea to work without the thought of losing his life, he became the first person in history to fly for nearly five days in a crate across the Pacific Ocean. The Author Brian Robson was born in the United Kingdom in June 1945 and has spent most of his adult life travelling and living in various countries throughout Europe and South East Asia.

  • MB1/L Mountbatten Papers: Organisations, 1937-82
    1 MB1/L Mountbatten Papers: Organisations, 1937-82 Throughout his life, Lord Mountbatten was associated with a great many charities and organisations, as a member, patron or president. From the mid-1950s, he began to decline invitations to join further societies; despite this, he was associated with 179 organisations when he retired in 1965. He attended numerous dinners and openings, and gave large numbers of speeches in connection with these societies; while, inevitably, he had only an honorary role in many, others took up more of his time and energy. These included polo clubs, ex-services organisations and naval organisations, the British Institution of Radio Engineers and other bodies connected with electronics, the Royal Naval Film Corporation, the Royal Automobile Club, the Royal Life Saving Society, and the United World Colleges. Campaigning on behalf of the last was one of the principal occupations of Lord Mountbatten's retirement, until he handed over the presidency to the Prince of Wales. The archives comprise mainly correspondence with the organisations, often about invitations to dinners and openings, or to give speeches, and the papers were originally maintained in a separate sequence of files in the office of Lord Mountbatten's private secretary. The files also contain many information booklets and annual reports sent by the societies. The papers are now arranged in files in alphabetical order by name of organisation; and, within the files, the papers are in chronological order. Other material on organisations can be found in section MB1/M, which contains the drafts of many speeches which Mountbatten gave, and in section MB1/K, which covers his retirement.
