Author and social media sensation Alice Loxton brings us a scintillating new history of Britain, told through eighteen figures in British history at the age of eighteen.
At eighteen, your life is full of what-ifs and why-nots. You have everything to look forward to—unless you've got the plague.
From a young Elizabeth Tudor, the orphan facing deadly intrigue at court, to a teenage Richard Burton, the rugby-obsessed son of a Welsh miner, historian Alice Loxton explores Britain's past through the lives of eighteen figures at this crucial age.
How do you make a living in Georgian London with no arms or legs? What would you do if a world war interrupted your university studies? With plenty of wit and insight, Eighteen invites readers to join an eclectic cast of young Britons, across the nation and throughout its history, to find out what makes us who we are.
