The Worst Natural Disaster in History
13 Oct 17
Congratulations to James Phelan for winning the history society’s debate entitled, ‘The Worst Natural Disaster in History’. James fought off stiff competition from Chester Wigzell, Oliver Reid, Tom Jarvis, Joshua Cole and Eliza Kilburn with his passionate and convincing argument in favour of the events of 1816, the so-called ‘year without summer’. Thank you to Dominic Ellice-Freeman for so ably chairing the event.
