'A magnificent piece of popular history.'  Independent On Sunday.

Tim Pigott-Smith reads the bestseller Nathaniel's Nutmeg, the extraordinary story of nutmeg, the spice trade, the island of Run and a heroic English adventurer.

'Milton has created a truly gripping tale of jingoistic pride, attrocious cruelty, avarice and double-dealing...His research is impeccable and his narrative reads in part like a modern-day Robert Louis Stevenson novel'  Martin Booth, The Sunday Times.

'To write a book that makes the reader, after finishing it, sit in a trance, lost in his passionate desire to pack a suitcase and go, somehow, to the fabulous place that, in the end, is something that one would give a sack of nutmeg for'  Philip Hensher, Spectator

Tim Pigott-Smith was worked extensively with the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal National Theatre and the Bristol Old Vic.  His TV credits include North and South, Fame is the Spur, The Chief  and The Jewel in the Crown.  His films include Aces High and The Remains of the Day.  He is also a successful director of stage plays.
