Soon Liddell and other foreign missionaries were interned
in a Japanese detainment camp.
It reads,“Eric Liddell was born in Tianjin of Scottish parents in 1902.
Liddell was sent to an internment camp in Weihsien in March of 1943.
While serving there, Liddell rescued two wounded Chinese soldiers, despite the significant risk involved.

The children did, in fact, learn well; Alice Liddell, for one, produced a number of skilful watercolours.
By manipulation and contrivance, Liddell Hart distorted the actual circumstances of the blitzkrieg formation,
and he obscured its origins.
The early 1950s literature transformed blitzkrieg into a historical military doctrine,
which carried the signature of Liddell Hart and Guderian.
John Tenniel's illustrations of Alice
do not portray the real Alice Liddell, who had dark hair and a short fringe.
Children's book collector and former American football player
Pat McInally reportedly sold Alice Liddell's own copy at auction for $115,000.
It also employs scenes with Charles
Dodgson, a young Alice Liddell, and an adult Alice Liddell, to frame the story.
Based on the chess games Carroll played with the Liddell children, it included material he had written before he knew them.
Liddell is mostly famous for being one
of the subjects of the film Chariots of Fire, along with running buddy, Harold Abrahams.
Now we don't want to downplay how impressive this achievement was, but it's child's play compared to what Liddell did next.
Long story short,
when the 400 metre final rolled around, Liddell, defied the odds
and won the event with a world record performance(47.6 seconds).
In hindsight- and with some help from Liddell Hart- this torrent of action was squeezed into something it never was:

In it, one of the two main characters, Eric Liddell, at one point says to his sister:“I believe

In July 1862, while on a picnic with the Liddell girls, Carroll recounted the adventures of a little

At this time, the Japanese were attacking China and Liddell ran the risk of being shot every time he walked out of the door.
Although Liddell Hart highlighted the importance of Allenby's"indirect approach",
the British Army's establishment preferred to publicise the anachronistic success of Allenby's cavalry for several years.
While on a picnic with the Liddell girls on July 4,
1862, he spun the story of a girl who fell into a rabbit hole.
A year after his Olympic victory in 1925, Liddell went back to China to serve as a missionary
like his parents before him had done.
A performance usually attributed to the fact that Liddell treated the race as a dead sprint,
running all 400 metres as fast as he possibly could.
In 1898 he joined the esoteric Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn,
where he was trained in ceremonial magic by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers & Allan Bennett.
This is a reference to art critic John Ruskin,

sketching, and painting in oils.

British theorists John Frederick Charles Fuller and Captain Basil Henry Liddell Hart have often been associated with the development of blitzkrieg,
though this is a matter of controversy.
