Harold Sidney Harmsworth

Harold was the financial brains behind the most successful journalistic enterprise in British history. His eldest brother, Alfred, was the visionary behind the Harmsworth publishing empire but it was Harold who ensured that it stayed on firm financial footing. His was a cautious, prudent personality even though the family nickname for him was "Bunny". Where Alfred excelled with words and vision, Harold's forte was numbers, caution and restraint. It was he, more than anyone else, who was responsible for the amazing success story of the Harmsworths.
