Fenland 1816, the end of the Napoleonic Wars: wages are low; prices are high; employment is scarce; and the harvest failing. A volcanic dust cloud spreads across Europe and America. Fenland explodes in riot and six rioters will hang.
Historical author Gareth Calway narrates the cataclysmic events of May-June 1816 as seen by a soldier, John, returning victorious from the Napoleonic Wars. Folk-balladeer Andy Wall interweaves a musical narrative with six stirring ballads, combining pathos, defiance and humour, as returning sailor Jack.
