Swisstory

Finally, the real history of Switzerland for clever kids and clever kids-at-heart: dukes slaughtered by filthy peasants, innocent "witches" hung up by their necks, buried gold, female mountaineers and, of course, all those murderous cows. . . Not the fake history of Heidi and William Tell, but 'Swisstory' - from ancient mountain people right up to women's right to vote. Hilariously illustrated by bestselling Swiss artist Michael Meister ('The Monster Book of Switzerland'), 'Swisstory' is outrageous, fascinating, gruesome - and completely true. For children from 9 to 99.
