Cyril Gordon Reuss Hibbert was the only son of Sir Henry Flemming Hibbert, Baronet, the Conservative MP for the Chorley Division of Lancashire (1913??"18). Hibbert standing second from right with four fellow officers from Chorley. From left to right: Capt. Brindle, Capt. Hibbert, Lt-Col. Hindle, Capt. Whitfield, and Capt. Rennard. A NEW book has revealed the bravery of wartime MPs who led from the front during World War One. Contrary to popular belief many of the country???s politicians did not simply watch the war from the comfort of their armchairs but rather signed up to lead at the front and many times campaigned to be allowed into the field of battle. Nearly a third of all MPs (28 per cent) were actively engaged in the war according to statistics published by The Times in April 1915. Their stories and those of MPs??? sons serving in the war have been told in Neil Thornton???s new book, Led by Lions, published by Fonthill Media. Neil Thornton / mediadrumworld.com
