Bettany Hughes

She is a remarkable woman. her documentaries are brilliant. she has made me want to go there and see the things she has talked and written about.
This interview is very interesting as she brings in her family and how they react to the things and places she takes them to, giving it a more realistic touch and not just back in the mists of Time. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will buy the Audible book.
