What really happened at No. 10 on the night Coventry burned?"

DAVID IRVING is speaking at a dinner function in Coventry (UK) on Wednesday evening November 14, 2007. That is the anniversary of the famous German air raid on the city, which was used to justify so much else.

But what actually happened that night?

"Did Winston Churchill know in advance and keep the secret from the citizens of Coventry?" says Mr Irving. "Having Churchill's desk diary and the diaries of his personal secretaries, I know exactly what did happen and it is an extraordinary story. Come along and find out: the £20 charge includes a full dinner (for more than one person the charge is only £15 each inclusive."

Mr Irving will be meeting many of his friends at several dinner-type functions in the UK over the coming weeks. "After speaking in virtually every city of the USA and other countries for years, it's time to do the same in my native England, or so I reason." The format will be private: a dinner from 7:30 to 8:30 pm followed by his talk.

Mr Irving will be happy to autograph any of his books you care to bring. Do bring friends or family too. He will be continuing this tour all autumn, more usually on weekends.
