Tales of a New Jerusalem

7 Jul 2024

12:00 - 13:00

The Alhambra Theatre

Join one of the foremost chroniclers of post-war Britain, David Kynaston, as he introduces his new book, A Northern Wind, and charts the seismic political and social change that typified the early 1960s.  

In the latest in his series, Tales of a New Jerusalem, Kynaston shows how, from 1962 to 1965, almost everything changed, from the arrival of the Beatles to a sex scandal that rocked the Tory government.  

Looking at landmark events like the Cuban Missile Crisis, the assassination of JFK, and the funeral of Winston Churchill, Kynaston compellingly transforms how we understand post-war Britain.
