The Doctor was introduced through his school aged grand-daughter and she and he would go on time travel adventures in his TARDIS, thus introducing young viewers to the exciting world of history. A classic TV example is series one of Doctor Who. These two goals are often addressed through the time travel trope.

Marshall makes this content accessible by splitting the book into 10 chapters, with each chapter focusing on a different part of the world, so you can pick and choose specific areas that are of most interest and relevance to you. The premise of this book revolves around considering a variety of different maps and explaining how the physical geography has affected the history of the area, focusing mainly on recent, well-known conflicts and issues. Defined as politics, especially international relations, that is affected by geographical factors, this book demonstrates how significant events that have happened in the past, and those that will happen in the future, can be largely attributed to a nation’s geography.

The apartment where Holmes and (sometimes) Watson live (the chronology jumps around) is absolutely filled with stuff: gold snuff cases, scrapbooks of newspaper clippings, an encyclopedia, a shoe filled with tobacco, Holmes's chemical apparatus, a sofa, a pipe-rack… Seriously, you have to wonder how anyone gets into the room at all, it's so packed. And one way it does this is through the setting. But, of course, all of this is the product of Conan Doyle's imagination, so we guess that's a – joke? Anyway, whether we're laughing or not, we have to admit that The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, while totally fictional, does go to a lot of trouble to look like reality. We pointed out that Conan Doyle is always making these odd little self-conscious remarks about fiction: Holmes often tells Watson that reality produces way weirder stuff than the imagination of any author could cook up.
