Description

To coincide with Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of VE Day in 2025, acclaimed historian Tessa travels the length and breadth of the United Kingdom on a quest to uncover a story of national warring and national mourning, of fighting each other and of fighting together.

Through veteran testimony and contemporary voices like Falklands hero Simon Weston and HRH The Duke of Kent, Tessa brings to life the pride and the pain involved in commemorating 2,000 years of war and peace across Britain revealing what our monuments and war heroes say about us, both then and now.

Purchase a Derby Book Festival Pass to attend this event and eleven others at QUAD at a significant discount.
