We hear so much rhetoric about migration. We forget that movement is in all of our DNA. From the beginning of time we have moved, long before borders existed.

It was a delight to come across this beautiful book from Colin Grant, acclaimed author and historian.

Colin has created a beautiful book where he makes space for those that have travelled and migrated to speak for themselves and it is fully absorbing and compelling. I loved this book and so wanted to meet the many people who opened up a window into their lives. I am confident that you will be repeating these stories to friends and family, and bringing more life to them, too. It is one that I will keep going back to over and over.
