If you don't already have a ticket...grab one here: ticketsource.com/rossiterboo…
My new book, Talking Classics, is out on 16 April. It asks why the deep past is worth studying, and gives some non-standard answers! Publisher have made it look very nice. Thank you @ProfileBooks

One not to miss!
Delighted to have been invited by @NewForestRamble to give a talk to the #NFHWA about my father’s service with #Force136 in Burma 1945. This story will take you right to the end of hostilities in WW2 & you might be surprised when that actually was! nfhwa.org

Planning your 2026 annual leave and staycations? Visit Ross-on-Wye, our beautiful market town in Herefordshire!
The town is the 'birthplace of British tourism' and considered the 'gateway to the Wye Valley', with a rich history to explore and amazing walks.

My new novel #awomanofopinion out 4th July (yikes!) tells the life of #marywortleymontagu who campaigned to kick the Tories out of office in 1715. History often rhymes, as #marktwain said. Come to one of the events, starting 8th July in London. @izzieghaffari @sarabethsbooks

And look at this glorious special edition from the equally glorious @GoldsboroBooks Truly a thing to behold. #MaryWortleyMontagu loved her books and travelled with a huge library. She would approve @DavidHHeadley @DoubledayUK !
In collaboration with @doubledaybooks we will have a stunning exclusive edition - complete with digitally sprayed edges, signed & numbered by the author.
*Currently this edition is on early access to previous buyers & PREM1ER members, so not yet available for general sale!
