In autumn 1933, Albert Einstein found himself living alone in an isolated holiday hut in rural England. There, he toiled peacefully at mathematics while occasionally stepping out to chat with the locals and play his violin. But how had Einstein come to abandon his Berlin home and go ‘"on the run"?
Andrew Robinson tells the story of how Britain became the a refuge for Einstein from rumoured assassination by Nazi agents.
