Giles Milton was born in Buckinghamshire in 1966 and read English at the University of Bristol. He is the internationally best-selling author of many works of popular history, including Nathaniel’s Nutmeg, Big Chief Elizabeth, Samurai William, White Gold, Paradise Lost, Wolfram: The Boy Who Went to War, Russian Roulette, Fascinating Footnotes from History, Churchill’s Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, and D-Day: The Soldier's Story. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages and have been serialized on both the BBC and in British newspapers.
