THE REST IS HISTORY - TOM HOLLAND DOMINIC SANDB...

Make room Herodotus  stand down Bede  pipe down Pepys . . . There's a new history book in town.
Pre-order your copy now. From the chart-topping podcast The Rest is History  a whistle-stop
tour through the past - from Alexander the Great to Tolkien  the Wars of the Roses to
Watergate. The nation's favourite historians Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook take on the most
curious moments in history  answering the questions we didn't even think to ask: - Did the
Trojan War actually happen? - What was the most disastrous party in history? - Was Richard
Nixon more like Caligula or Claudius? - How did a hair appointment almost blow Churchill's
cover? - Why did the Nazis believe they were descended from Atlantis? Whether it is sending
historical figures to Casa Amor in a series of Love Island  ranking history's most famous
eunuchs and pigeons (including Winky  the unsung hero of the Second World War)  or debating the
meaning of greatness  there is nothing too big or too small for Tom and Dominic to unpick. So
run your Egyptian milk bath  strap up your best Spartan sandals  and prepare for a journey down
the highways and byways of the human past. . .
