- A Must for All who like reading History Books
I’ve been following Peggy’s podcasts for some months but I must give a special mention to his excellent conversation with Prit Buttar. I could listen to his story about the German refugee lady all day. He is as skilled a narrator as he is a writer. Thank you, Peggy, for persuading him onto the show 😊

I have just finished listening to my first episode of authors of history. It’s the one where Jack Bowsher is talking about his books on Burma. What is so interesting about this podcast is that it is a different format. It’s not so much about the history but it’s about how the authors got to writing their book, their background, why they structured it that way. It’s a sort of x-ray of the author process. Really fascinating and I can’t recommend it enough.
