...anyone but the most ardent Jew-baiter, Lord Haw-Haw's Twilight Over England is interesting only for its preface. There William Joyce (whose name has been Germanized to Fröhlich) puts his imprimatur on the fact that his father was an Irishman, his mother a Briton, himself a New Yorker. Born in 1906, educated by Jesuits in Ireland, Joyce became a Fascist in 1923, joined up with comic-strip Dictator Mosley ten years later. Twice arrested for assaulting fellow citizens in political brawls, Joyce took it on the lam for Berlin just before war was declared...

She is, however, just...
...physicists who accomplished the feat were Nobel Prizewinner Jean Frédéric Joliot, son-in-law of the late Marie Curie (see p. 24), L. Kowarski, H. von Halban Jr., E. Perrin. Details of the experiment were meagre: apparently they split uranium atoms in such a way that a lot of neutrons flew out-entirely too many to be accounted for as the result of the first fissions. Some of the neutrons must have been products of secondary and tertiary fissions. After that the reaction was too weak to continue. But it was obvious that the release...
