I absolutely loved this.

It's exactly the kind of historical stuff I love reading. And the way I think and discuss things too - associating from subject to subject.

I was sad when I finished my audiobook at work and immediately had to go subscribe to the podcast.

I NEED MORE

I really liked the format of this history book. The way it connects one thing a “Glove” with anything and everything. Shakespeare’s father was a Glover, The Holy Roman Empire, Poisons, Anglo Saxons….etc.

It’s a quick & fun read with lots of trivia.

Wondeful historical fun facts

I found some chapters more interesting than others and thought some of the connections were forced, but generally this was a fun and unique history. Random but interesting to dive in and out of. Definitely going to check out the podcasts!

Honourable mention that my hometown’s castle was mentioned briefly.
