As a collective gift from a pile of friends from the UK, i had to take this as was intended: on the bog or with drink. However, it held up elsewhere as well. A groovy little romp through the rest of history!A very simplified look at England's history. Some of the jokes were funny, however many were overused and not even slightly funny in the first place. Also I noticed a few incorrect facts, such as Margaret Tudor's husband, James IV, being James the III's son NOT Jame's II. Definitely recommend this for someone who's short on time and is interested in England's history.
Even though I'm not British, John Farman's endless disses of the French will never get old.
Entertaining outline, still should be read slowly to retain facts - if, like me, you aren't the best at remembering names etc
Hilarious and fascinating. Wish there were more books like this
Lots of fun fast facts, a great little exciting history book for all ages
Interesting, but still prefer Horrible Histories series by Terry Deary.
