«England's Forgotten Past» is Richard Tames's popular history essay, published by National Geographic Books in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The book rescues forgotten episodes and characters from English history: unsung heroes, kings, battles, inventors, and the everyday lives of sailors, peasants, and soldiers. It includes curiosities such as that for three centuries no king of England had English as his first language, with quotes and anecdotes to read in standalone chapters.
Subtitle: «The Unsung Heroes and Heroines, Valiant Kings, Great Battles and Other Generally Overlooked Episodes in Our Nation’s Glorious History». This edition was published in April 2019.
For those curious about English history who prefer anecdotes and secondary characters to the usual chronological narrative.
