Alice in Sunderland. Wonderful "adult" comic novel. Seriously the thing is between 200-400 pages. Neil Gaiman illustrated it, and Bryan Talbot wrote it.
I learned more about British history, as an American, from that book, than I did in my university level history classes.
I had no idea this existed, and I'm from the area it's about! Will have to give this one a look ๐
The bit about you all capturing a monkey, and deciding it was a Frenchman sailor/ spy is particularly humorous, though I do feel bad for the monkey.
