Ep. 21. Wilhelm Tell

In this episode 5 of series 2 - I recount the story of Wilhelm Tell and the shooting of an apple from the head of his son and then look at how the Swiss hero has been perceived and emulated during subsequent history. What is his status today?

There's a Facebook page where I share news, maps and images that support the narrative - Switzerland, a Chronicle.
