‘It was fascinating to read about your great grandfather, what an extraordinary life!’ Stephen Fry – yes, the peripatetic virtuoso, Stephen Fry - observed on reading a preliminary article on Frederick (August, 2010). And no wonder … Madness, murder, suicide and war … drug broking, opium smuggling and colonial Burma in crisis. This is the amazing story of Frederick Puckle’s tumultuous life in nineteenth century England.
