Stolen History — Sathnam Sanghera

An accessible, engaging and essential introduction to the British empire for readers aged 9+, by bestselling author of Empireland, Sathnam Sanghera.

Sanghera brings Empireland to young readers: what the British Empire was, what it did, and why it still matters — honest, balanced and pitched perfectly for curious kids (and the adults reading over their shoulders).

This book will answer all the important questions about Britain’s imperial history.

It will explore how Britain’s empire once made it the most powerful nation on earth, and how it still affects our lives in many ways today – from the words we use, to the food we eat, the sports we play and even to every grown-up’s fixation with a good cup of tea.

Because how can we ever make the world a kinder, better place for the future, if we don’t know the truth about the past?
