Eton’s Hidden Stories Brought Vividly to Life - Deborah James’ self-guided tour of Eton is a masterclass in storytelling. What I had always assumed was a sleepy, picturesque town suddenly revealed itself as a place brimming with history, intrigue and character. Through Deborah’s engaging narration, Eton’s centuries-old traditions, influential figures and lesser-known tales come alive in a way that’s both enlightening and thoroughly enjoyable. Her approach is warm, intelligent and conversational. She has a gift for weaving together historical facts with personal insights and touches of humour. You’re not just learning about kings and scholars - you’re gaining a deeper appreciation for how Eton has been shaped and each stop on the tour offers a new layer to discover. Deborah manages to make the history feel relevant and accessible. I came away with a completely new perspective on Eton. It’s no longer just a postcard-perfect town - it’s a living archive of stories, traditions and more than a little intrigue! It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon - one we’d happily repeat. Thank you, Deborah, for bringing Eton to life so beautifully.
