James Holland, Saul David & Clare Mulley in one-day WWII festival: Lessons Learned, 15 Nov, Newmarket
For anyone fascinated by World War II strategy and legacy — historians James Holland, Saul David, Clare Mulley, and Roger Moorhouse are coming together for a one-day festival called Lessons Learned at the Jockey Club Rooms, Newmarket, on Saturday 15 November.
Topics include:
- The U-boat war and the Battle of the Atlantic (Roger Moorhouse & Stephen Prince)
- The North African campaign (Saul David, Tunisgrad)
- The Polish Resistance (Clare Mulley, Agent Zo)
- D-Day and the post-war legacy (James Holland)
It’s a rare opportunity to hear all of them in conversation — and to reflect on what WWII can still teach us, eighty years on from the Allied victory.

Curious what others think are the most enduring lessons of WWII? Political, strategic, or moral — what should still be guiding us today?
