History for Tomorrow: Inspiration from the Past for the Future of Humanity by Roman Krznaric is an eye-opening exploration that reveals how our rich history can guide us through present challenges and into a hopeful future. With insightful reflections from notable authors such as Peter Frankopan and George Monbiot, this book serves as a vital resource for anyone seeking clarity in an increasingly complex world.

In History for Tomorrow, Krznaric dives deep into transformative moments over the last millennium, illustrating how lessons from the past can empower us to address the pressing issues of today, including:

  • Climate Crisis: Discover what radical revolts can teach us about disobedience in the face of environmental degradation.
  • Economic Innovation: Learn how insights from 18th-century Japan can inspire a regenerative economy.
  • Technological Ethics: Examine the origins of capitalism and how they offer pathways for regulating AI.

Krznaric emphasizes that history is not merely a reflection of what has been; it is a powerful tool for reimagining our relationship with the future. With a focus on bridging inequality, fostering democratic values, and preventing ecological collapse, this book presents a vision of radical hope. It shows that societal resilience and innovation have always emerged, even under the most challenging circumstances.

Engage with this compelling narrative and discover how embracing our history can be the key to navigating the turbulent decades ahead. History for Tomorrow is not just a book; it is a call to action for all who are ready to rethink their role in shaping a sustainable future.

Why Sherlock & Pages?

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
