Terry Deary: A History of Britain in Ten Enemies image
Synopsis:

In A History of Britain in Ten Enemies, Horrible Histories author Terry Deary argues that nations and their leaders are defined by the enemies they make. Boudica would be forgotten if it weren’t for the Romans, Elizabeth I, a minor royal without the Spanish Armada, Churchill an opposition windbag without Germany, and Thatcher remembered as a mean ‘milk-snatcher’ if it weren’t for the Argentines!  
 
Sunderland born Terry Deary is the bestselling author of 340 published books including the acclaimed Horrible Histories, selling over 38 million books in 45 languages. A History of Britain in Ten Enemies is Terry’s first book for adults.
