About this audio guide
This guide to the Carlton in Cannes goes back to January 1922, when the whole hotel was requisitioned for a conference on the peace after the First World War. It follows two prime ministers, David Lloyd George of Britain and Aristide Briand of France, and the question of what Germany should pay. Along the way a young Italian journalist named Benito Mussolini turns up in the press ranks. Best heard on the Croisette, facing the seafront facade.
