We’re giving away a stunning book this month: one copy of The World by Simon Sebag Montefiore, described as “the story of humanity from prehistory to the present day, told through the one thing all humans have in common: family.”

Please read the instructions carefully. And remember, if you’re a winner, you’ll need to answer our email within 48 hours (it’s all in the T&Cs, boring but useful reading). Good luck!

The World by Simon Sebag Montefiore was published on 27 October, 2022.

The publisher, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, tells us: “This is world history on the most grand and intimate scale — spanning centuries, continents and cultures, and linking grand themes of war, migration, plague, religion, medicine and technology to the people at the centre of the human drama.”

We’re grateful to the Orion Publishing Group, which W&N is part of, for their generosity in providing us with this prize.
