On Thursday 27th June, Cahoots popped up at The London Library! Our scoundrels served up Tanqueray No. TEN gin cocktails in the magnificent Reading Room, while guests explored the 1940s through fascinating artefacts and extracts from the Blitz, such as shrapnel-damaged books, images of the bombed library, war-time correspondence and newspapers relating to D-Day. Best-selling and prominent writers of the period attended the event, including the likes of Giles Milton, Joshua Levine, Lissa Evans, Rick Stroud and Tim Bouverie. Guests were also given the opportunity to enjoy guided group tours of the library, learning about its history as one of the world’s leading literary institutions founded in 1841.
