Republic - Alice Hunt, at Heffers Bookshop

England's unique and distinctive republican experiment may have been short-lived, but it changed the course of British history. It transformed the relationship between England, Scotland and Ireland, reset the compact between the monarch and the people, and re-fashioned the story the British told - and continue to tell - about themselves.

REPUBLIC is a richly engrossing year-by-year account of this exhilarating and daring period. It tells the story of what Britain's republic was really like: why it failed, but also, what it got right.

Professor Alice Hunt comes to Heffers on the 8th of October to discuss her fantastic new book Republic: Britain's Revolutionary Decade, 1649-1660
