Christmas: A Social History This book provides an original perspective on the West's most enduring social and cultural institution. The author covers all the vital themes contributing to the modern Christmas: its Anglo-German origins and the idea of the bourgeois Christmas expressing family virtues; the need for a touchstone with the past in an age of rapid expansion and thus the myth of Merrie England; and the revival of English music: in short, all the elements making up the modern Christmas.

Reaching for the Stars: A New History of Bomber Command in World War II The role of Bomber Command in World War II is still shrouded in mystery. This book provides a new and revisionary narrative of the campaign, serving as both a military history and an investigation into how modern perceptions of Bomber Command have come about. It shows why Bomber Command — in one of the largest and bloodiest campaigns of the war with 55,000 aircrew lost — has received so much attention yet remains a lost sheep among British wartime glories, and is still dogged by controversy.
