One of the many problems with listening to books is that you don't have proper nouns in writing. There is one name that has confused me through every book. Sir Duggan? Terdugan? Turducken? Aargh. Wikipedia doesn't help you if you can't spell the name. This guy was important. He was in the War Cabinet. He wrote a diary or a book about what went on during this period. But who was he?
Alexander Cadogan, of course. Two countries separated by one language. According to Wiki, this is pronounced Caduggan, although the first syllable is emphasized and probably sounds more like Cur. I'd have pronounced this like cardigan without the "r". I love mysteries, especially ones that have a solution.
