Michael Guida

Recenzje

By cleverly weaving together themes of nature, war, and broadcasting, Guida offers us an exciting new way to listen to - and to understand - twentieth century Britain. His book is clearly the result of meticulous research and deep thought. But it's also infused with genuine compassion for the people and events it describes. This is history at its glittering, exhilarating best.
