The story of the way Britain has been settled & influenced by foreign people & ideas is as old as the land itself. In this original, important & inspiring book, Robert Winder tells of the remarkable migrations that have founded & defined a nation. ' Our aristocracy was created by a Frenchman, William the Conqueror, who also created our medieval architecture, our greatest artistic glory. Our royal family is German, our language a bizarre confection of Latin, Saxon &, latterly, Indian & American. Our shops & banks were created by Jews. We did not stand alone against Hitler; the empire stood beside us. & our food is, of course, anything but British... Winder has a thousand stories to tell & he tells them well' Sunday Times ...

One of the crucial factors that kept Tommy going on the Western Front was his ability to see what was comic in the horror, deprivation & discomfort of trench warfare
- an attitude which blossomed further in the rest areas behind the lines. The nature of the comedy ranged from gentle irony to a rougher hilarity that produced full-on belly laughs.

For almost forty years the events of ' Bloody Sunday' on January 30 1972, have been the subject of intense claim & counter-claim. In 1998 Tony Blair attempted to settle the controversy by commissioning a fresh inquiry. The longest, most thorough & costly inquiry in legal history, the details of the Saville Inquiry are hardly known. Douglas Murray followed the Inquiry daily, almost from the beginning, hoping to find a story. Instead, he found hundreds. In this book he tells these stories
- the stories of the individuals involved in the terrible events of that defining day. This book is not only about a terrible event & it is not just about a process of justice. It is about the efforts of a group of people to arrive at truth & a country's effort
- three decades on
- at a painful & perhaps incomplete reconciliation.

Philpott displays a great mastery of detail... A meticulous work of revisionist military history dedicated to proving that if Stalingrad provided the tipping point of the Second World War then the Battle of the Somme served exactly the same purpose in the First.' Anthony Howard, Daily Telegraph. 1 July 1916: the hot hellish first day of the Battle of the Somme has dominated our perception of the First World War for nearly a century. This powerful new account argues that our view has been obscured by this myth of tragedy, & that we need to see the Somme as contemporaries saw it: as a necessary stage in an intensive & brutal war of attrition. ...
