Reviews
Praise for History and the Media:
'interesting and illuminating essays on diverse aspects of this recent cultural and intellectual revolution [the flourishing of history in the media]. - The Sunday Telegraph
History made and in the making, and the time-loops it both creates and follows, prove endlessly fascinating in these writings.Financial Times Magazine
Praise for What is History Now?:
'At last, What is History? gets the successor it deserves...extremely readable and highly stimulating.' - Roy Porter
'...destined to become a must-have text for today's history students.' - Tristram Hunt, BBC History Magazine
'...he has assembled a distinguished team who convey, with spirit and lucidity, the scale and excitement of discovery that 40 years of specialization has produced.' - Blair Worden, Sunday Telegraph
'...should prove invaluable to graduate students and scholars...' - Claude Ury, History: Reviews of New Books
'Readers will find reliable and insightful information presented without recourse to jargon.' - E. A. Breisach, Choice
'A fresh look at the icon .. a thought-provoking book.' - John Crossland, The Times Higher Education Supplement
'All the essays in the Cannadine collection share the recognition that the Nelson legend itself is a topic for investigation. And like the best collected essays, a major effect of Admiral Lord Nelson: Context and Legacy will be in inspiring other historians to future work - and not just on Nelson. For this reason the work is relevant for students in areas beyond naval and British history.' - H-Net Reviews (H-Albion)
