S3 Ep2: The Ballad of Captain Leinster

from Coastal Stories · host Charlie Connelly

Thomas Sinclair Leinster of North Shields might have been a master mariner but he definitely wasn't a master criminal. The story of his disastrous 1894 attempt at insurance fraud on the high seas is a tragic tale of farce, incompetence, high comedy and a fake beard.https://ko-fi.com/coastalstorieshttps://twitter.com/PodcastCoastal
