The Dogsbody Papers: Or, 1066 and All This

Dogsbody is an ancient family whose members have stamped their characters on some of the greatest events in history. Their diaries, letters, journals and household accounts were unearthed in the 1950s. Over the past 30 years E.O. Parrott has researched and collated these papers. The end result is a controversial human and historical document which questions accepted academic wisdom. E.O. Parrot's books include "The Penguin book of Limericks", "How to Become Ridiculously Well Read in One Evening", "Limerick Delight", "Imitations of Immortality" and "How to become Absurdily Well-Informed About the Famous and the Infamous".
