An evening with debut author Sarah Brooks

Join us in the shop as we meet Leeds based author Sarah Brooks and talk to her about her debut nostalgic fiction novel The Cautious Traveller’s Guide to the Wastelands.

‘A woman on the platform with a borrowed name. A disgraced naturalist determined to discover miracles. A child with a dangerous secret.’

Filled with wild imagination, and a fantastical twist, this piece of gloriously nostalgic fiction takes you on a wild and thrilling ride on the Great Trans-Siberian express during the golden age of steam.

Yorkshire battles and the Leeds Central Library Collections

Yorkshire has been the battleground for some of the bloodiest, treacherous and the most vicious battels ever fought in Britain. In this talk Josh Flint will explore the battels, sieges and naval battles that have been found in Yorkshire from the 7th to the 20th- centuries and how these extraordinary events are represented in the Leeds Library's Collection.

There will also be an opportunity to browse items from the Yorkshire Battles Leeds Library Collection.

This event is part of the Armed Forces Festival.
