Simon Webb is the author of a number of non-fiction books, ranging from academic works on education to popular history. He works as a consultant on the subject of capital punishment to television companies and filmmakers and also writes for various magazines and newspapers; including the Times Educational Supplement, Daily Telegraph and the Guardian.
'As ever, Webb proves himself to be a consummate researcher,
turning back time to allow modern readers to develop an
understanding of past events. With so much focus on World War I in
recent years due to centenary commemorations, it's fascinating to
see how the conflict shaped and changed the country.'-- "Essex Life
Magazine"
"All in all, it is an extraordinary tale that is well told with a
clear and readable style. Webb makes a convincing case for the idea
that a revolution might have been on the cards in this country a
year after the Great War ended, however fanciful this might seem to
some readers."-- "Battlefield: the Magazine of the Battlefields
Trust, Spring 2017"
A fantastic insight into the tumult that existed as the British
ruling class pushed back against the unrest which World War One and
the Russian revolution had unleashed-- "The Socialist"
