Enjoy a two-course lunch and glass of wine in the company of bestselling author, Jonn Elledge as he takes diners for a fascinating journey through the ideas and innovations that shaped the modern world.
For more than 10,000 years, humanity has transformed its environment in the pursuit of progress, evolving from hunter-gatherers into the urban societies we know today. But what were the breakthroughs that made this remarkable journey possible?
With his trademark wit and infectious curiosity, Jonn explores the overlooked inventions and everyday innovations that underpin modern life. From elevators and electric lighting to street numbering and sewer systems, discover the extraordinary stories behind the essential infrastructure we often take for granted — and gain a fresh perspective on the history of civilisation itself.
