Welcome!
Have you ever read a work of historical fiction and wondered if what you were reading was historically accurate? Have you read a history book and wanted to become more absorbed in the setting?
At Unbox the Past we curate book boxes that pair historical fact with fiction. Perfect to fully explore history!
In each of our book boxes you will find two books, one fact and one fiction, connected by a theme. Themes include the Titanic, WW1, espionage and the 1980s (Stranger Things).
The books are accompanied by a set of reader notes, our ‘unboxed insights’ to help you explore the books further. They include a comparative timeline, author biographies, places to visit etc.
There are also a range of history themed treats in the box including a bookmark, specially designed badges, an 'I love history books' pencil and bespoke artwork designed by @shivsbookshelf.
Our boxes are a great way to treat yourself or would make a lovely gift!
