A HISTORY OF BRITAIN 3000 BC -AD 1603 - Simon Schama


 



















A very interesting read but a bit of a cheek stating its start at 3000 BC, the first 3000 years were written off in about 40 pages.

After that when proper records were kept things got interesting.  I assume there is a trick to remembering your Henrys from your Georges through the centuries but I don't know it so I stopped trying to remember which king was which and just enjoyed the ride.

THE SECRET LIFE OF J.EDGAR HOOVER - Anthony Summers

  A man who abused his position like no other public servant in history.  A vile little man.
