C.B. Fry was Captain of England at cricket, played football for
England and became the joint-holder of the world long-jump record.
But he was much more than a sportsman. He won a major scholarship
to Oxford, where his friends numbered Max Beerbohm, Hilaire Belloc
and F.E. Smith and his nicknames included "Lord Oxford" and
"Almighty". He wrote several books, including an autobiography and
a novel, while he was one of the most successful journalists of his
day. He was a friend of many prominent Labour and Liberal
politicians, but flirted with Fascism, meeting Hitler in 1934. He
tried out for Hollywood, represented India at the League of
Nations, and stood for Parliament three times.
