About:
John Montagu was born on 3 Nov in 1718 and succeeded his grandfather to become the Fourth Earl of Sandwich when he was ten. He held a number of significant political positions, three times serving as First Lord of the Admiralty, notably including the American Revolution. He was a patron of Captain James Cook, who named quite a few things in the south Pacific, including the Sandwich Islands (now Hawaii) after the Earl. Depending on whether you believe the traditional biography (which holds that Montagu was too busy at the admiralty to leave for lunch, so he had meal of salt beef between two slices of bread at his desk) or the rumors of his detractors (that he often ate this meal at the casino to avoid interrupting the games), what we know as the sandwich was definitely named after him.
