The creator of What Happened Here? London, Cockney Rhyming Slang, and An Architectural Vocabulary Knowledge Cards, Gwyn Headley is immensely knowledgeable about his home country's history. He takes us from Berkshire to Yorkshire, dispensing an illuminating, drily humorous factoid at each of our forty-eight stops. One side of each card presents part of an antique map, with a date and colorful target showing where an event took place. The card's other side presents a concise, casual overview of the event itself. This deck is as valuable for its solid scholarship as it is for its entertainment quotient. Size: 3 1/4 x 4", ISBN: 0-7649-2796-5. |
