Migrants: The Story of Us All by renowned author David Miller is a groundbreaking exploration of the intricate and essential narratives surrounding human migration. This compelling book cuts through the noise of toxic debates, presenting a rich tapestry of stories that reveal our innate desire to move and explore.

In this enlightening read, Miller argues that humans are fundamentally a migratory species, tracing our roots back to a time when we roamed as nomads. The evolution of permanent settlements and the concept of borders are relatively recent developments in our history. Through the lens of historical figures such as Neanderthals, Alexander the Great, and modern-day leaders, Migrants showcases the diverse motivations behind migration—ranging from adventure and curiosity to necessity.

  • Historical Context: Understand how migration has shaped human existence throughout history.
  • Dual Perspectives: Examine the complexities of being both sub-human and super-human as migrants navigate their new realities.
  • Empathy and Awareness: Explore a timely narrative that fosters empathy for migrant experiences.

Acclaimed by critics as “fascinating” (Daily Telegraph) and “enjoyable, provocative, and timely” (Spectator), Migrants offers a fresh lens on migration, urging readers to recognize it as a core part of all human stories. Whether you identify as a migrant or not, join the conversation and broaden your understanding of this pivotal issue in our world today with Migrants: The Story of Us All.

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.’
