Horrible Histories

 I read a chapter called The Revoltting English. The part I am writing about is called Dreadful Diary 5 November - Good Guy Day OR Glorious Day. In England the 5 November is a day when you set up a fire work display to celebrate the capture of Guy Fawkes(Guy Fawkes tryed to burn parliment when Stuart King James 1 was inside).

 Guy refused to betray his friends. He was tortured by being streched on a rack but still refused to speak. Only when his friend s were killed he spoke. There month later after he was arrested he was taken to be hanged, have his guts cut out and burned, then have his head cut off and his body chopped into quaters.

Here is an example of a comic: 

 One group of peasants set London house on fire and came across some barrels.

  What's in these, then?

  Probaebly gold and silver.

  Throw it on the fire then.

  Good idea...

 If they'd only looked inside they'd have seen the barrels were full of...

  Gunpowder.

  Ooops!

 They died.



 I recomend reading Horrible Histories and watcing the TV series.If you type Horrible Histories into youtube you will get a nica selection.
