The creator of the iconic Horrible Histories series and bestselling books such as A History of the World in Ten Enemies joins us to celebrate the release of A History of the World in Ten Wars.
From the ancient Greeks to the Seocnd World War, Terry Deary takes us on a witty whistlestop tour of world history through ten transformative conflicts, teaching us parts of infamous history that they don't teach us in school and asking one very important question: was it really necessary?
Terry will be talking us through the impact that these wars made on global history before signing copies of his book.
