Terry Deary, creator and author of the iconic Horrible Histories series and of Revolting and A History of Britain in Ten Enemies, joins us to launch his latest brilliant history book: A History of the World in Ten Wars!

From the ancient Greeks to the Second World War, people have fought, and Terry Deary's latest book takes us on a fast-paced and witty journey through history focusing on ten transformative conflicts down the years and their impacts on the world and history with his characteristic humour and eye for telling details!

Terry will be talking about how wars have changed the world, what we can learn about the present day from the wars of the past, and more, before signing copies of his books.
