When I was at school we did Weimer and Nazi Germany/the background to World War II in history for GCSE, AS and A Level. At the time I thought it was silly to retread the same ground so often when we all understood: Nazis are bad. Now it's 2025 and it turns out not everyone got that message...

All I have left of the 1000s of books I bought from my ex-publisher's warehouse are about 200 copies of Ring The Hill. I'd *love* to get them to good homes this week.
If you're in the UK & you'd like one, for the price of your choice (any price!), pls email me your address at hello@tom-cox.com.
This is a great post and I'm so glad I saw it with my eyes today.
