Paperback book with cover showing a long straight road between pine trees leading to a distant city beneath blue sky. Title of book is The Roads To Rome: A Journey into Europe's Past by Catherine Fletcher. Quotes on cover describe it as 'epic and witty - Fletcher is a thoroughly enjoyable narrator' (Tobias Jones, Observer), 'A delightful and authoritative history from the ground up' (Judith Herrin) and 'an exemplar of history as travelogue' (Miles Pattenden, Literary Review).

Poster version of book cover in previous photo - looks the same but in a black picture frame and without the quotes.

My publisher made such a lovely cover for the paperback of The Roads to Rome that I asked if they could also do a poster! Out next week - order here: www.penguin.co.uk/books/443108...

This book is fantastic. I finally read it last week and it gave me so much food for thought. I swear there's been a sudden wonderful resurgence of work on #AnneBoleyn, and that delights me.

A book cover showing a man on a bizarrely styled float in the sea trying to take a measurement with a sextant. Another sailor sits waiting next to him in a small rowing boat. The title of the book is The Board of Longitude: science, innovation and empire, written by a group of authors.

10 years after the project finished we have finally found our longitude!

All the c.18th seafaring and boardroom drama you could wish for in one expertly written volume!

Happy Mother’s Day.

The past year has tested my resources and resilience.

All I do is for them.

For those who find today hard for whatever reason, I’m sending you so much love.

Pale blue event poster with β€œHistfest 2025” in white lettering on a bright pink background at the top left.

Below it in pink,β€œ26-27 March, British Library & Online” On the right are three portrait-shaped images. The first is a photo of a brown woman with dark hair, smiling, wearing a dark suit and a pastel brightly patterned collared shirt. The second image is a bright red book cover with an oval, silver-coloured mirror with a black frame comprised of sci-fi and fantasy monsters, with yellow lettering for the title, β€œHUMANS”, around the top of the mirror, in a stylized font with details that resemble whale-tails and bats’ wings. Subtitle just inside the mirror: A Monstrous History. Inside the bottom curve of the mirror: Surekha Davies. The third image is a photo of a white woman with short white hair looking quizzical, wearing a blue sweater and a white collared shirt. The small pink HistFest logo with black writing is at the top right-hand corner of the photo.
