Brought to you by Penguin.Discover who we are and how we got here by preordering comedian and student of history David Mitchells UNRULY A History of Englands Kings and Queens a thoughtful, funny exploration of the founding fathers and mothers of England, and subsequently Britain.Think you know your kings and queens? Think again.In UNRULY, David Mitchell explores how Englands monarchs, while acting as feared rulers firmly guiding their subjects destinies, were in reality a bunch of lucky sods who were mostly as silly and weird in real life as they appear today in their portraits.Taking us right back to King Arthur (spoiler he didnt exist), David tells the founding story of postRoman England right up to the reign of Elizabeth I (spoiler she dies). Its a tale of narcissists, inadequate selfcontrol, excessive beheadings, middlemanagement insurrection, uncivil wars, and at least one total Cnut, as the population evolved from having their crops nicked by the thug with the largest armed gang to bowing and paying taxes to a divinely anointed king.How this happened, who it happened to and why it matters in modern Britain are all questions David answers with brilliance, wit and the full erudition of a man who once studied history and wont let it off the hook for the mess its made.A funny book about a serious subject, UNRULY is for anyone who has ever wondered how we got here and who is to blame.Read by David Mitchell.2023 David Mitchell (P)2023 Penguin Audio
