Spring 2024

I've been busy. I've completed a travel trilogy of long trips by car, by bicycle and on foot - Remarkable Road Trips, Remarkable Bike Rides and Remarkable Treks. They're designed to inspire, whether behind the wheel, on the saddle .. or in the comfort of your own armchair.

My series of 100 Things continues to expand. Joining 100 Books that Changed the World, 100 Speeches, 100 Letters,100 Children's Books and 100 Posters since I last updated this page: 100 Science Discoveries, 100 Symbols and 100 Novels. They make great bedtime reading - short, thought-provoking articles to make you want to learn more.

Out last year, The Anatomists' Library is a comprehensive history of anatomy told through 4000 years of documents and publications. From ancient Egypt to the 20th-century, it's a fascinating, occasionally gruesome story, exquisitely illustrated with period diagrams.

Coming soon, more great bedtime reading with Shakespeare for Every Night of the Year, a collection of quotes and intersting anniversaries. Later in 2024, History Trees is a survey of trees old and young which have witnessed remarkable events.
