1066 and all that
Sellar , Walther Carruthers
1066 and all that - London Penguin 1963 - 124 p. ilus. - Penguin book 1424 .
This richly funny book has been a best seller for thirty years. 'All the history you can remember' , say the authors, ' is in it'; and the result is an uproarious satire upon text-book history and our confused recollections of it 'forty years on'; this his a historical harlequinade in which ' howlers', jests, and jibes tumble over each other from start to finish. The illustration by John Reynolds are ludicrously apt. A memorable history of England, comprising all the parts you can remember, including 103 Good Things, 5 bad kings, and 2 genuine dates.
