Reviews

[Helen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Geographically organised history of Britain focused on all the nasty, gory and gruesome bits. Fairly interesting book that's good to dip in and out of.

[Liselotte · Rating 2 out of 5]

DNF'ed it. It's pretty meh, nothing special and you won't really learn something new.
