"The Busy Person's Guide to British History" is the perfect light history read. In less than 350 pages you are whisked from the distant stone age all the way up to 1945.

Jem Duducu has been in love with history since as long as he can remember. It therefore came as little surprise to his parents that he is one of the last students to get a GCSE in Medieval History and went to UWCC to read Archaeology and Medieval History.But history doesn't pay too well so he got himself a proper job, then a wife and then two kids. This book is dedicated to them, his lovely and loving family. They all live in the western hinterland of London.His love of history now manifests itself in terms of writing (well you have just read all of this haven't you?) and Social Media.
