Most us know about Henry VIII, Napoleon and Churchill, but what about history's unheralded heroes?

In his new book Lessons from History, author and political commentator Alex Deane shines a light on the less-known characters who have helped shape our history, from the original Die Hards, to crown jewel thieves, self-medicating generals and a Countess who scandalised society.

To delve into these fascinating stories, Alex will be the special guest at our next CapX Live event, hosted by CapX's editor, John Ashmore.
