Virginia Woolf's brilliant hoax that caught the world's attention
In 1910 Virginia Woolf and her friends pulled off the 'hoax of the century' when they donned wigs, costumes and black face to successfully convince the British Navy to give them a guided tour of the pride of the fleet - HMS Dreadnought. They were decked out as Abyssinian Princes. But what were race relations like in Britain at the time and could the prank be seen as racist?
Guest: Danell Jones, author of The Girl Prince: Virginia Woolf, race and the Dreadnought hoax (Hurst)
