An Evening with Tom Scott

Join us for an evening with renowned cartoonist and author Tom Scott.

Captain Charles Hazlitt Upham is the only combat soldier ever to win the Victoria Cross twice. His acts of bravery in World War II meant he probably deserved six more.

The mystery of how a reserved, modest, slightly built farm valuer from New Zealand, could be so ferocious and fearless in battle has intrigued and fascinated acclaimed writer and illustrator Tom Scott ever since he read about Charles Upham as a schoolboy.

‘Searching for Charlie’ is his epic quest to unravel the “real” Charles Upham.
