    Dr Michael Jones developed his love of history at Bristol University, and his interests range from the Middle Ages to the Second World War. He is the author of Bosworth 1485 - Psychology of a Battle and a battlefield guide to Agincourt. Mike has taught history at Glasgow University and Winchester College and now works freelance as a writer and presenter.
    He has been guiding tours for over 20 years and his particular interest is in battlefield psychology - inspirational leadership, the nature of courage and what inspires men to fight against the odds. His recent books on World War Two’s eastern front: Stalingrad, Leningrad and The Retreat - the German retreat from Moscow - use much new testimony from German and Russian veterans, and have received critics’ praise and wide readership. I recently read Total war and found it fascinating.
    Here is a chance to to talk to a man who interviewed the soldiers who liberated Auschwitz among other actions.
