Sir Anthony Seldon is an educator, historian and author, acclaimed for his biographies of British Prime Ministers since the 1990s. Between 2023 and 2025 Seldon walked a 1,300 km route to Auschwitz hearing, along the way stories of men and women who protected the vulnerable during the Second World War and who stood up to evil in the face of unimaginable brutality. In The Path of Light, he reflects on how we can draw on these uplifting accounts to build a more peaceful world for the future.
