I graduated in Politics from Bristol University in 1980, where my degree special studies were in radical Christian politics and theology of the seventeenth century & also the development of the Soviet State. I taught history for thirty-five years (as Head of History & Director of Humanities Faculty at a number of secondary schools in the UK). Latterly, I was curriculum leader for Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural education at a secondary comprehensive school in the UK. During this time I developed an interest in early medieval history (especially Anglo-Saxons and Vikings), as well as continuing my interests in radical Christian millenarianism and also Soviet history, including Russia post-1991. I have acted as an historical consultant to the National Trust, the BBC, and English Heritage. I am a Licensed Lay Minister, in the Church of England, with an active interest in theology. Recently, I have written about the impact of end-times (apocalyptic and millenarian) beliefs on culture and politics over 2000 years. I retired from teaching in 2016 to devote more time to writing, historical and political commenting, and guest blogging. I am a regular columnist for a number of online news platforms and also contribute to a wide range of radio and TV news and chat shows - especially exploring how faith interacts with contemporary culture and how history impacts on the present. I am the author or co-author of fifty-five books, with total sales of over 1 million copies. These include school history textbooks and adult history books. The latter are written with the aim of making historical themes both engaging and accessible to adult readers.
