- About the Author: Edward John Barrington Douglas-Scott-Montagu, 3rd Baron Montagu of Beaulieu is a British Conservative politician well known in Britain for founding the National Motor Museum. Lord Montagu gained an interest in motoring from his father - who had commissioned the original "Spirit of Ecstasy" mascot for his Rolls-Royce - and with his family collection of historic cars this led him to open the National Motor Museum in the grounds of his stately home, Palace House, Beaulieu, Hampshire in 1952.
