A masterpiece of historical research but also, much more importantly, a delight to read . . . a rare and beautiful thing
Gerard DeGroot, The Times
I read Empire Of Things with unflagging fascination . . . elegant, adventurous and colourful . . . gleefully provocative
John Preston, Daily Mail
Such a pleasure to read . . . From Victorian department stores to modernist kitchens, his book revels in the things that most historians tend to overlook
Dominic Sandbrook, Sunday Times
Fascinating. You can't not learn something new here . . . [An] epic tale
