Received a message via my publisher @barnthorn from a reader whose uncle was in one of the camps I wrote about in The Undefeated. He wanted to pass on his thanks for writing about it ❤️It’s stuff like that which makes all the effort worthwhile.
We are delighted to welcome Carolyn Graham as a new Barnthorn author.
Her forthcoming book explores her grandfather John Wood’s First World War service through his diaries, aerial photographs, and rare original sound-ranging strips.

Thanks @YankyGirltoo for spotting this festival at @RHChelsea & @NAM_London, so nice to finally catch up with @DrHelenFry and @guywalters and collect some more books! Also great to see my publisher @barnett617 from @barnthorn to discuss a new book about WW2 Royal Marines
A fine day at the @ChelseaHistFest at the National Army Museum.
Great debate about the impact of espionage in WW2, with everyone’s favourite - @DrHelenFry although I did have to elbow @SiBiggs out if the way in order to get a photo with her 😆
@guywalters told the incredible story of Polish resistance fighters smuggling a very large rocket out of Poland and into Churchill’s grasp.
What a day!
