    Not your typical soldier, not your typical service The term ‘citizen soldier' evokes a particularly powerful image in Britain.

      Teaching History feature
    There are few periods in our history from which we turn with such weariness and disgust as from the Wars of the Roses. Their savage battles, their ruthless executions, their shameless treasons seem all the more terrible from the pure selfishness of the ends for which men fought, the utter...

  • Edwardian England

    Ruined buildings shrouded in trees, masonry crumbling into the undergrowth.
