NLJ this week: History in bite-sized pieces

82776
How well do you know your history?

If you need to brush up on your dates, why not start with Roderick Ramage’s excellent snippets from The Reduced Law Dictionary, as appears in this week’s NLJ? His bite-sized nuggets make learning history a breeze.

Travel back to the time of King Ethelbert and the arrival of 40 missionaries in what later became Canterbury, pitch forward to the battles against Viking invaders, find out the identity of the ‘English Justinian’, and learn why old statutes used to refer to ‘Wales and Monmouthshire’. All this, and more, right up to 1952, can be found here.
