King John's reign was a tumultuous time in English history, marked by treachery, tyranny, and the struggle for power. In this gripping historical account, Marc Morris takes readers on a journey through the life of the infamous Plantagenet king, unraveling the events that culminated in the signing of the Magna Carta – a seminal document that would forever change the course of governance and individual liberties.

Morris, a renowned historian and author, deftly weaves together a rich tapestry of political intrigue, personal rivalries, and the relentless pursuit of absolute authority. With meticulous research and a captivating narrative style, he brings to life the complex and often volatile dynamics of medieval England, shedding light on the pivotal moments that shaped John's controversial reign and the eventual curtailment of his despotic rule.

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.’
