Temelkuran’s work cuts through easy reactions like cynicism and rage, and shows us how to engage again.

My response to reading Sathnam Sanghera’s bestselling Empireland was, “I only wish this book had been around when I was at school.” So I’m delighted to see that he has written the soon to be published Stolen History: an introduction to the British empire for younger readers. Understanding our history is crucial to making sense of the world around us, and this warm and informative book sets out an engaging and accessible account of how our past has shaped our present – from the language we use, to the food we eat.

The contemporary holiday perpetuates the myths of the Wampanoag and Pilgrim relations," Peters writes in the book.
