It was the 18th century equivalent of winning the lottery. Through amazing luck, Frederick Hervey rose from obscurity to become the Bishop of Derry and the 4th Earl of Bristol. Although an English aristocrat, he was loved by the Irish; although a champion of reason and tolerance, he spurned his family to collect art, mansions and beautiful women, to wander Europe and become a spy. This is his story.
