    In the summer of 1381, an army of tens of thousands of commoners—farmers, blacksmiths, and villagers—marched on London with a revolutionary list of demands. This was the Peasants' Revolt, one of the most terrifying, violent, and significant popular uprisings in English history.

    The "Unkillable Soldier" - Adrian Carton de Wiart
    Sep 25 2025

    He was shot in the face, head, stomach, leg, and hip. He survived multiple plane crashes, tore off his own fingers when a doctor hesitated, and escaped a POW camp in World War Two while in his sixties.

    This is the story of Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart, the man Winston Churchill called a "model of chivalry and honour."
