I came across this story because there used to be a pub named after her - don't know if it is still there.

I think it closed a few years ago, which is sad really.

I have a good biography of her: www.amazon.co.uk/Fine-Brother-Captain-Flora-Sandes/dp/1846882451

She's amazing.

I have a good biography of her - thank you for posting that, bakingdemon - now on my wishlist for next time DH says, "I don't know what to get you for...".
