Peter so much deserves the praise he is getting from all quarters, especially from N.A.M. Rodger, for the masterpiece he has written about Thomas Cochrane. Such a brilliant book!

During my recent stay in London I have tried to track down some places relevant to Cochrane's life.

1 Cock Lane
Mr. King's tin factory Cochrane went to on the morning when the Great Stock Exchange Fraud happened.
This is where the original building stood.
