More Lessons from History by Alex Deane

More Lessons from History by Alex Deane

Welcome to another round of history's most absurd stories and the timeless lessons that come with them. In More Lessons from History, Alex Deane has unearthed yet more bizarre tales that you certainly haven't heard before. If you're wondering how large, flightless birds might organise themselves against a military regiment, how you should respond to the glare of an international rugby player whose glass eye you just knocked out, exactly why carrots are orange, or whether the world's worst-run battleship ever ceased firing upon her comrades-in-arms, then look no further. In this second volume of his acclaimed series, Alex Deane reminds us that, throughout history, human nature has remained exactly the same, and the way that people responded to the most amusing, horrifying and convoluted of circumstances in the past can teach us everything we need to know about who we are today.

Alex Deane is a former Conservative Party aide and a non-practising barrister. He is a regular commentator on political events on UK and international news channels. A partner in a global business consultancy, he was for some time a local councillor, until he received some extremely robust advice from his electorate. He is the author of Lessons from History (2021) and co-hosts the hit Hidden History Happy Hour podcast.
