Latest Books Out

This latest release by Eight Magpies is Non-Fiction, and draws heavily on historical events. Although it’s written with tons of prose, and offers so much more than dates, times and places.

Broken into bite-sized chunks, the life of a six-year-old daughter of immigrants, is placed into context by her gripping story, which isn’t boring at all.

And readers are left in no doubt, as to what life represented during 1969 Britain, condensed over four days.

There are a few memorable characters, tears, bewilderment and humour too.

We hope you’ll enjoy it, and not just for Black History Month, but used throughout the year to brush-up on antiquity.
