It's publication day for #LiverpoolAndTheUnmakingOfBritain by Sam Wetherell 📚 The epic history of Liverpool since the Second World War, from its promising rise to its disastrous decline... bit.ly/4haxTcU

My book - Liverpool and the Un-Making of Britain - is out today! Here is a thread I made earlier of extraordinary facts about the city's history to get everyone excited.

I made an excellent last minute decision to go to Liverpool to see Sam Wetherell launch his new book, a history that treats racialised experiences of obsolescence - not the welfare state - as the twentieth century lesson for us now. Read read read!

Julia is so, so good at what she does and you would be a FOOL not to hire her.

Had the most amazing conversation with the Anfield Wrap (The Anfield Wrap ) about Liverpool and how obsolescence demands a new kind of British history! And of course my new book about all these things. youtube.com/watch?v=OQ4abM…

Reminder for Liverpool friends - this is tomorrow!

Sharing blurbs is very cringe. And one day I promise I'll stop posting about my book. But this, from the great Bill Schwarz, means so much.

I haven't posted in a REALLY long time, but had to this morning. Very much enjoyed this morning's episode of "The 7" podcast hosted by Hannah Jewell from The Washington Post. Witty, funny, and informative. Just what I needed. Thanks!

Every day, I make the podcast knowing that a high school class is going to listen to it. A slightly terrifying prospect… podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
