I’m a retired History teacher. I got the MBE in 2012 for Services to Education. I have written five books, three on the First World War, one on the Second and one on Hartlebury Castle and the English Civil War. I do History talks on many topics!

I had to wait until Christmas Day to receive the book I bought from you following your excellent talk in Birmingham. I was the man with two loaves of bread. Merry Christmas to you and yours. @profaliceroberts.bsky.social
