Remember Me - Lesley Pearse [191]
I read dozens of books in my research for Remember Me, but these are the most outstanding ones.
To Brave Every Danger by Judith Cook. Truth is often stranger and more heroic than fiction, and Judith Cook’s meticulously researched book on Mary Bryant of Fowey is truly inspiring and a must for anyone with a passion for history.
Fatal Shore by Robert Hughes. A fascinating, fabulous book on Australia’s early years.
The First Twelve Years by Peter Taylor. Amazingly informative without being dry or dull. Good pictures too.
Orphans of History by Robert Holden. An often tear-jerking story of the forgotten children of the First Fleet.
The Floating Brothel by Sîan Rees. The story of the transported women who sailed on the Juliana. Shockingly informative.
Boswell’s Presumptuous Task by Adam Sisman. A wonderful work on James Boswell.
Dr Johnson’s London by Liza Picard. Wonderfully readable, an incredibly vivid image of London in the eighteenth century.
English Society in the Eighteenth Century by Roy Porter.
