This base contains an up-to-date list of popular history books published in the UK since 2019. It is surprisingly hard to get a good clean list of history books so if you are interested in the subject you may find this a good place to get inspiration! 📚
I made it to support my history book review blog www.popularhistorybooks.com. Have a look at the site to see the different ways you can use or integrate an airtable base - or indeed to read some reviews of popular history books 😀. You can also see a more detailed explanation of how we derive this list of books.
I have added four categories to filter by: time period, region, historical sphere, country (if relevant). You can use the headings to search for the combination that interests you most. The descriptions in the headings give you the 🔑 for my emoji symbols. I have also added some views based on time periods to get you started.
Books are listed in order of publication (hardback copy 📕) from most recent first. But again this can be changed to suit you.
You can click on the blue and red buttons to take you to the UK or US amazon web pages for the books. Links 🔗 are clean with no affiliation!
Finally - this is one table synced from a larger base that has multiple tables, with links to publishers and our reviews etc that we use to publish blog posts and generate some <a> links used on the site. But I'm afraid I am too nervous to share the whole thing!
