Description

Acclaimed author and veteran political reporter Colin Brown travels to the places where British history was made to unearth what makes this nation truly great.

Reviews

This is as much a travel book as history. Brown goes to significant sites Its in evoking such a strong sense of place that the book succeeds in conveying a sense of history.

Spirited, entertaining and fascinatingly informative.

David Cameron calls this absolutely fascinating and you cant say fairer than that.

'Barely a page fails to yield some colourful historical nugget.' Dominic Sandbrook, Daily Telegraph on Whitehall 'Brown is a cheerful guide - full of anecdotes and observations.' The Guardian on Whitehall
