Book description
Michael Young is a brilliant young history student whose life is
changed when he meets Leo Zuckerman, an ageing physicist with a theory
that can change worlds. Together they realise that they have the power
to alter history and eradicate a great evil. But tinkering with
timelines is more dangerous than they can imagine and nothing - past,
present or future - will ever be the same again.
Making History is funny, moving, romantic and told with
Stephen Fry's characteristic skill and brilliance.

, and two volumes of his autobiography, Fry played Peter in
Peter's Friends
, Wilde in the film

and (a closely guarded show-business secret, this) Laurie in the
television series

. More recently, he presented

, his groundbreaking documentary on bipolar disorder, to huge critical
acclaim. And his legions of fans tune in to watch him host the popular
