    Answer to puzzle #5057

    Answer: John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich

    Image 1: He was a member of the notorious Hellfire Club.

    Image 2: Sandwich which got its name after John Montagu once demanded to be served bacon between two slices of bread - he was too busy gambling (Image 3) to eat and did not want to dirty his fingers with the grease from the bacon!

    Image 4: The American Revolution. It is suspected that his atrocities were trigger for the American Revolution.

    Akanksha, life expectancy improved during his reign - that is the life expectancy of those lucky (?) ones who were allowed to live. Should be popular on IL, though!
