The Disappearance of Grace Oakeshott | Cautionary Tales Podcast

At the start of the 20th century, Britain was slowly becoming a freer place for women. Young Grace Oakeshott seized every opportunity to learn and improve the world around her - though she found those opportunities frustratingly narrow. One day, she vanished suddenly, leaving behind only a pile of clothes on a beach. A hundred years later, the truth about Grace’s disappearance has finally come to light. #podcast #cautionarytales #history #storytelling #missingperson #missingpersons ABOUT CAUTIONARY TALES We tell our children unsettling fairy tales to teach them valuable life lessons, but these cautionary tales are for the education of the grown-ups — and they are all true.
