Review:
IN OUR TIME's success derives in part from the interested public having Melvyn Bragg in their corner... his lack of intellectual vanity is impress, but so is his grasp of the subjects at hand.

Sunday Telegraph Melvyn Bragg's matchless colloquies on Radio 4 Stephen Fry The best programme coming out of the entire corporation these days David Sexton, Sunday Telegraph Melvyn Bragg's consistently superb In Our Time John Banville What might be the best radio programme ever Oliver Burkeman, Guardian Bragg's excellent radio programmes on the subject ...are the basis of this history of English over the past 1,500 years. Guardian on The Adventure of English Always readable, often thought-provoking, and consistently entertaining. Independent on The Adventure of English This is a highly readable, jargon-free treatise on a notoriously prickly subject. Bragg's affection for his subject is infectious. Observer on
