I haven't read anything by Ackroyd, who seems to write across a number of genres, although I have picked up the first title in the series, Foundation: The History of England from Its Earliest Beginnings to the Tudors, back when it was on sale. His bio indicates he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 1984 and appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2003, though, so I guess he's no slouch . Maybe someone else has read some of his books...
