Built by slave labour in the early years of the eighteenth century, Saint Petersburg was Peter the Great’s so-called ‘window on to Europe’, a city that would outdo all of Europe in its splendour. But a window works both ways, and as bestselling historian Sinclair McKay writes, St Petersburg has always been a city that has drawn Westerners who wanted to see into Russia. It is also a city where much has happened. It was St Petersburg until 1917, Petrograd after the revolution, Leningrad after Lenin’s death in 1924, and St Petersburg once again from 1991. This biography of a city stretches from Peter the Great to Vladimir Putin, who was born and made in St Petersburg. The story centres on the ‘900 days and nights’ of the Siege of Leningrad, 1941–44. Unlike Paris or Prague, the Nazis weren’t trying to take over, they wanted to wipe it off the map. According to some, this siege of 1.5 million people – including Putin’s mother – was an attempted genocide. Based on first-hand and many unpublished accounts from figures from all walks of life – irascible authors, factory workers, bakers, furriers, dancers, sailors, grandparents, children – this masterpiece reveals the central importance of St Petersburg over the centuries. This is the story of the city told from the perspective of the people who lived there. About the author: Sinclair McKay is the Sunday Times bestselling author of Meeting Churchill , Berlin, Dresden , The Secret Life of Bletchley Park, The Secret Listeners, Bletchley Park Brainteasers and Secret Service Brainteasers . He is a literary critic for the Telegraph and the Spectator and lives in London. Information Source: Hungerford Bookshop | eventbrite

On 6 June 1944 when the allied armies landed on D-Day, the Second World War had already lasted almost five years. Yet many of the British and American troops who invaded Normandy were virgin soldiers, never before committed to battle. They quit summer England to face within hours a storm of machine-gun and mortar fire. They witnessed scenes, above all of sudden death, such as no exercise had prepared them for. In Sword, veteran chronicler of war Max Hastings explores with extraordinary vividness the actions of the Commando brigade, Montgomery’s 3rd Infantry and 6th Airborne divisions on and around a single British beach. He describes their frustrations, hopes, loves and fears through the apparently interminable years training and preparing in England, then their triumphs and tragedies on the beach and beyond. Here are the airborne assaults on the Caen Canal bridge and Merville Battery, the battles on the shoreline and against the German strongpoints inland, narrated and explained with all the insights that Hastings’ decades of study, veterans’ interviews and new archive research enable him to deploy. The book offers a searching analysis of why British troops did not reach Caen on 6 June, as Montgomery had promised Churchill that they would – and the story of the brigadier who was sacked for that failure. There is also a host of personal portraits of key figures from commando leader Lord Lovat, famously brave but supremely arrogant, to tank colonel Jim Eadie, whose tanks of the Staffordshire Yeomanry repulsed a panzer division in the last hours of 6 June, and some of the humbler participants to whom extraordinary things happened. This is D-Day as you have never read the story told before, with the blend of narrative, analysis and human insight that made Max Hastings’ last book Operation Biting, like many of his earlier works, a Sunday Times No.1 bestseller.

Local author Roger Hunt has had a lifelong interest in history. This, his first book, is a historical novel set during the Napoleonic Wars, inspired by remarkable, little-known events. The story centres around two unusual, flawed characters - James Roberston and Jacques Marquet. It is 1808. Napoleon is nearing the zenith of his power. Desperate to dent his supremacy, the British government sends James Robertson, a middle-aged, overweight monk on a secret mission to persuade a Spanish general to betray Napoleon. Meanwhile. Jacques Marquet, a passionate supporter of the Revolution, is appointed chief spy-catcher for northern Germany, despite his career being blighted by his aristocratic birth. Landed on the north German coast, Robertson narrowly avoids capture. In Hamburg he is spotted by Marquet but on this occasion managed to evade him. The monk discovers that the Spanish general and his troops have moved into Denmark and travels north. A desperate game of cat and mouse then unfolds as Robertson tries to persuade the general to defect, while all the time avoiding capture by Marquet. The journey will take him through Denmark, Germany and into Bavaria as the Scottish monk continues his fight against Napoleon. Join us for a convivial evening over a glass of wine (or soft drink) as Roger discusses his new book and his journey to being published followed by a Q&A, and book signing.

Clarice Cliff: Sunshine on a Plate ! Clarice Cliff is of course a famous name in the antiques world and since the Hungerford Arcade is the UK's biggest and best antiques centre, Hungerford would seem to be a good fit from a marketing point of view, e.g. good promotional opportunities in the arcade. In addition to that connection the play features Hungerford character actor Nicholas Lumley who is also an auctioneer. The play, which includes images of some of Clarice's most iconic work, recently sold out at all 3 of its preview venues (The Phoenix Theatre & Arts Centre, Petersfield Museum and Art Gallery and The Irving Studio at The Everyman Cheltenham) which is very encouraging in the current tough economic climate. Building on this success I'm planning a small tour in summer 2025 and ideally looking for dates between the end of May and the end of July. Clarice Cliff was an extraordinary woman who embodied the new modern spirit of the 1930's with her vibrant and joyful designs. Her work is still widely collected today and regularly features on Bargain Hunt, Antiques Road Show etc. Born into a poor family in a world where a woman's place was very definitely in the home, her artistic vision, colourful and innovative designs and sheer determination saw her become the first female art director in the potteries. “I was completely engrossed”, “A fascinating story, wonderfully performed.“ “Totally captivating. . . revealed Clarice the woman as well as Clarice the artist.” (Audience feedback) Information Source: Arts for Hungerford | eventbrite
