It took 3 years to complete, costing a fabulous sum to produce. This magnificent picture will be lucidly lectured by Mr Barrie Marschel, an expert elocutionist, who has been engaged specially by the management for the purpose. In the production the whole of England was laid under contribution for authentic records, and all assistance was given by the Imperial and state officials, in order that nothing should be omitted which would render the work absolutely reliable in every detail.
