The Secret History of Gold
Gold (noun): A precious, yellow metal, prized for its beauty. Inert, immune to corrosion, highly malleable though with little utility. Seen as pure wealth.
The definitive biography of the metal that has shaped our world - and may yet determine its fate.
The Secret History of Gold tells the epic tale of the world's oldest, and most treasured, currency. From its origins in the formation of the solar system to its pivotal role in both ancient myth and modern finance, Dominic Frisby explores, with wit and brevity, how gold has defined the entire course of human civilisation.
Gold has inspired men to do the most brilliant - and terrible - things. The most stolen metal in history, it has lured explorers, conquerors and thieves. It has sparked wars, it has built empires, it has empowered leaders - from Alexander the Great to Adolf Hitler - good and bad. As nations today such as China and Russia mine and hoard gold at record rates, Frisby examines its enduring significance in the digital age and its potential to influence global peace and power.
This is the untold story of gold: its past, its present and its future.

The Bells of Nagasaki
‘A book that everyone should read’ The Times
A harrowing, heart-rending first-hand account of the bombing of Nagasaki – and the acts of human kindness left in its wake.
On 9th August 1945, the Japanese city of Nagasaki is hit by an atomic bomb. Forty thousand people are killed instantly. Doctor Takashi Nagai is not one of them.
Pulling himself, broken and bloodied, from the wreckage that was once the city’s university hospital, Takashi bundles together a tattered group of survivors. Doctors, nurses, students, each with their own losses, their own fears for the future: they work tirelessly at the impossible task of aiding the countless wounded and easing the deaths of those they cannot save. They remain determined to heal their fallen city, to find solace and hope among the rubble, even as a strange and growing sickness begins to claim them.
Eyewitness to one of the most fatal events in human history, this is Takashi’s record, written from his sickbed – a chilling historical document, and undeniable evidence of the capacity for human kindness.
Published now in the UK to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
