Join Terry Deary, the number one Sunday Times bestselling author, for a lively and laugh-out-loud exploration of history’s most pivotal conflicts, told only as he can.

Why do we keep making the same mistakes? And is there ever a better way? Expect surprising insights, unexpected truths and plenty of humour including: Why ancient Greeks finally united after centuries of fighting each other The Mongols’ ingenious (and oddly practical) approach to warfare How teabags were invented by accident Why Napoleon wasn’t defeated by winter – but by a heatwave And why the ‘World Wars’ might really have been one long war with a break ?PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT IS DESIGNED FOR AN ADULT AUDIENCE...
