The History Gossip: A Slice of Ye Olde Scandal for Every Day of the Year

This debut book delivers a daily dose of history’s wildest, weirdest, and most scandalous moments — one for each day of the year. From ancient rulers and royal love-triangles to Victorian-era medical oddities and scandalous tragedies, the book mixes well-researched historical facts with sharp wit, humor, and a modern pop-culture sensibility. Rather than offering a dry, academic account of the past, it presents history as a playful, often outrageous collection of human stories: scandal, drama, oddities, and dark humour.
