@iainmacgregor1.bsky.social enthralled us all, talking about his latest book, 'The Hiroshima Men'. It's a topic those interested in WWII history will have read much about, but Iain unearthed new angles that brought home the humanity, and moral questions around this seminal event.

Anne Frank, born this day in 1929. By turns thoughtful, moving, and surprisingly humorous, her diary offers a fascinating commentary on human courage and a compelling self-portrait of a sensitive and spirited young person whose promise was tragically cut short.
