Stuart Laycock is a British historian and author best known for the popular-history book All the Countries We've Ever Invaded: And the Few We Never Got Round To.
All the Countries We've Ever Invaded: And the Few We Never Got Round To (2012) attempts to catalogue every country Britain has ever invaded or made an incursion into, whether they were part of the British Empire or suffered a briefer attack, were threatened, or forced to negotiate.
[1] The book was attacked by Marxist writer Richard Seymour in the Guardian for allegedly trivialising the suffering caused by imperialism.
[4][5] Warlords advances the theory that the Anglo-Saxon invasion of England was a takeover by a warrior elite.
[7] Laycock's first book of poetry, Zone:Poems from the Bosnian War,[8] drew on his experiences as an aid worker.
