Episode 245
Robert Maxwell was a man who seemed too large for the age he lived in. To some, he was a brilliant immigrant success story — a war hero who arrived in Britain with nothing and built a vast publishing empire. To others, he was a bully, a fantasist, and a man constantly one step ahead of collapse. He filled rooms with his voice, his ambition, and his need to be noticed. Power fascinated him. Respect obsessed him. And money — other people’s money — kept him afloat longer than anyone expected. His life was a blur of triumph and secrecy, influence and illusion, ending not in a boardroom or courtroom, but alone at sea. This is the story of how Robert Maxwell rose, ruled, and finally disappeared.
