Winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-fiction, 2008. Winner of the Richard & Judy, Book Club title, 2009. Winner of the Galaxy Book of the Year, 2009. Winner of the Play.com, Popular Non-Fiction Award, 2009. It is midnight on 30th June 1860 and all is quiet in the Kent family house in Road, Wiltshire.
