A request for suggestions: if you had to buy *THE* history or politics book as a gift, something brilliant and unmissable, what would it be?

#WLFShistory tell your SLT people. @mfordhamhistory has summed up many of the frustrations of assessment as it exists.

[Lizzy James @Lizzy_bury]

#WLFShistory Just bought 'ordinary men' after Rachel Foster's impassioned argument for historical scholarship, & the effect that book had.

[Lizzy James @Lizzy_bury]
