History - Selected Series

The Danger Zone

An immensely entertaining and educational series revealing the ‘warts and all’ truth about life in different historical periods. Richly illustrated throughout with an invaluable insight and a wealth of detailed observations.

Selected Title: Avoid Being a Medieval Knight!

The Cherished Library

Books in the 'The Cherished Library' look and feel like fine editions from a cemetery of forgotten books. The ornate key to this labyrinthine lair of lost literature has been handed down from generation to generation of the distinguished Cherish family. Just before his death in 2008, the late Professor Cherish set up a trust so that these books, which have survived fire, the sword and the censors, be made available to collectors.

Selected Title: Ireland - a Very Peculiar History

How To Be

Discover what your life would have been like as a different person in another age. These books delve into the fascinating facts and details of history with a delightfully fresh approach. Historically accurate illustrations embellished with speech bubbles accompany the informative text. A question and answer interview at the end finds out if you really have ‘what it takes’ to get the job.

Selected Title: How to be a Pirate

Chronicles and Codex

Bring history to life with this fascinating 'Faction' series. Superb full-colour illustrations create a vibrant and engaging title, perfect for either home or school. Gatefold and split pages reveal fascinating behind-the-scenes details. Each title includes four small, six-page booklets pasted into the main book. Special features include padded covers with gold foiling and 'True or False' questions with answer section at the end of each book.

Selected Title: Knight - Ready for Battle
