"Utterly, utterly brilliant. Fizzing with energy, wit and insight" – Tracy Borman, bestselling historian

The Guardian has highlighted the biggest books to look forward to in 2024, and among them is Eighteen by historian Alice Loxton. This captivating work explores the lives of eighteen figures in British history, each at the pivotal age of eighteen.

From a young Elizabeth Tudor facing deadly intrigue at court to a teenage Richard Burton, the rugby-obsessed son of a Welsh miner, Loxton delves into the experiences of these individuals to uncover the lessons we can learn for modern Britain. How did they navigate the challenges and opportunities that come with being eighteen? What obstacles did they overcome, and what paths did they choose to forge their own destinies?

Filled with fascinating stories of royalty, explorers, writers, and entertainers, Eighteen invites readers to join an eclectic cast of young Britons across the nation and throughout its history. Loxton's expert storytelling and deep historical insights promise to captivate readers, offering a unique perspective on the universal experiences of youth.

As described by Tracy Borman, the book is "utterly, utterly brilliant, fizzing with energy, wit and insight." Bestselling author Dan Jones praises it as "a whirlwind of historical energy," while James Holland, another acclaimed historian, commends Loxton's "brilliantly original, wonderfully perceptive and full of rich insights," cementing her place as "one of our most exciting and talented young historians."

Whether you're eighteen yourself or simply curious about the formative years of some of Britain's most iconic figures, Eighteen promises to be a captivating and enlightening read. Loxton's ability to breathe life into the past and draw connections to the present make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the human experience and the enduring influence of history.
