Waterstone's Guide to History Books Fact and Fiction

Whilst starting to sort through books in preparation for a house move (aaaaggghhh) I came across this Waterstone's book dating from Spring 2003. Upon rereading I thought it would make an interesting list.
A few of the images are a little blurry as the only image I had were those printed in the book, which I took photos.
There are also a few which I had no image at all, therefore I made a basic picture to use (but I think I need to improve it for any future usage).
