A History of Britain in Ten Enemies
Horrible Histories author Terry Deary argues, nations and their leaders are defined by the enemies they make. A witty, whistlestop tour of British history that will have you laughing as you discover what they didn't teach you in school.
For instance, did you know:
Elizabeth I would count as a minor royal without the Spanish Armada?
Without the Nazis, Churchill would be remembered as an opposition windbag?
And the surprisingly sadistic Boudica would be forgotten if it weren't for the Roman Ninth Legion?
Irreverent and tongue-in-cheek, written for adults by the multi-million copy bestselling author of Horrible Histories.
The Hilarious Sunday Times Bestseller.
