Thomas Coram's long life embraced a Devon childhood, early manhood as a Boston shipbuilder, supporter of women's and children's rights, triumphant founder of the children's hospital which still bears his name and a crusty but finally reconciled old age. Gillian Wagner unravels the many sides of this very private man.
