After first crossing paths with @leighturnerwriter.bsky.social while he was still UK ambassador in Vienna and I was writing about his predecessor in the 1930s for my PhD, it was so good to have him at Radley to speak with our students last night. Check out his new memoir, 'Lessons in Diplomacy'!

A few years ago, I presented my research on the Austrian Legation in London (@austriainuk.bsky.social) in the 1930s to Austrian Cultural Forum in London, and was joined by Dr David Schriffl, the @bmeia.gv.at's chief historian.

Sargent's unusually long posting to the Foreign Office enabled him to develop unrivalled expertise on interwar Central European affairs, informing many of Britain's most important policies in times of uncertainty and peril.
