What the Tudors and Stuarts Did For Us Zusammenfassung

What the Tudors and Stuarts Did For Us Adam Hart Davis

Following the massively popular BBC series of the same name, What the Tudors & Stuarts Did For Us, this new paperback edition takes the reader on a remarkable journey through the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Great heroes stride through the pages, including Edmund `Comet' Halley, William Tyndale, who decided he would make it his life's work to translate the bible into English, and Francis Bacon, who died inventing the frozen chicken.

What the Tudors & Stuarts Did For Us also features some of the best-loved demonstrations from the series, including a Tudor printing press, the first flushing toilet, the first pressure cooker and a Tudor knitting machine, amongst many others.

`Hart-Davis dashes through an eclectic mix of the period's innovations in this fun-filled romp' Daily Mail

`Adam Hart-Davis' enthusiasm and knowledge makes him a winner amongst viewers' Evening Standard
