Review

Evocative, pacey and educative adventure and we have to recommend it! -- The Bookbag July 30th 2010

Very enjoyable caper - young lad in Victorian London tries to prevent a murder with help of 21st century cat. -- Bookbag July 30th 2010

'An evocative, pacey and educative adventure, and we have to recommend it.' --The Bookbag, John Lloyd

'Entertaining adventure (for) children interested in life long ago.' --Irish Post, Robert Dunbar

Details of London life are accurate and the important but little known story of Joseph Bazalgette's engineering achievements are revealed. --Historical Novels Review Issue 54 November 2010

Successful as the rest of the series as it uses same ingredients - adventure, historical fact,animals and fast action. Highly entertaining read for 8-12s.
--Historical Novels Review Issue 54 November 2010

Format:Paperback
This is going to be a winner with my Year 6s, huge fans of this series. This is Horrible History at its best with all the horrible facts conveyed by a pacy gripping narrative. Topher and Ka his time travelling cat find themeslves in London in 1858, the year the river Thames came to a standstill because it was so full of sewage. The smell drove MPs from the Houses of Parliament and urged on by Queen Victoria herself, the PM decided at last that Something Must Be Done. Enter Joseph Bazalgette, engineer extraordinaire, who built the sewers that transformed London. But Bazalgette had enemies, not least the owners of the big houses that had to be destoyed to build his system. The plot centres on an attempt to murder Bazalgette, discovered by our hero and his cat. A largely unsung hero this book should do something to make Bazalgette as well known as he deserves. Florence Nightingale also makes an appearance though as one of the many who resisted the engineer's claim that sewage was causing the cholera epidemics that swept through the city. An excellent informative fast moving thriller.
