An Evening with Tim Butcher

On a summer morning in Sarajevo a hundred years ago, a teenage assassin fired not just the opening shots of the First World War but the starting gun for modern history by killing Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Join us for an evening with celebrated author of ‘Blood River’ and ‘Chasing the Devil’ Tim Butcher as he discusses his newest title 'The Trigger: Hunting the Assassin who Brought the World to War' which delves into this story and illuminates our understanding of Princip and the places that shaped him.
