A fantastic collection of all the information we should have been taught in school. I learnt none of this in my history lessons, despite being 'taught' exactly this topic. I'd read around the subject after this so knew a lot of the contents of the books but I'm surprised I hadn't come across some things, and the book itself!

I've recommended 500 Years of Resistance far and wide since starting it but I must admit, it took me a long time to get through for such a short book. There isn't much about the resistance in it. It's more a list of events in a haphazard order. This said, it's definitely a must read for all.
