The title unfortunately describes the way this book is plotted. For wherever Historians go, chaos is sure to follow in their wake. And, as they soon discover - it's not just History they're fighting.įollow the catastrophe curve from 11th-century London to World War I, and from the Cretaceous Period to the destruction of the Great Library at Alexandria. But one wrong move and History will fight back - to the death. Their aim is to observe and document - to try and find the answers to many of History's unanswered questions.and not to die in the process. Meet the disaster-magnets of St Mary's Institute of Historical Research as they ricochet around History. Maintaining the appearance of harmless eccentrics is not always within their power - especially given their propensity for causing loud explosions when things get too quiet. They don't do 'time-travel' - they 'investigate major historical events in contemporary time'. "History is just one damned thing after another."īehind the seemingly innocuous façade of St Mary's, a different kind of historical research is taking place.
