History is everywhere in the media. Television viewers can spend
every evening watching a different historian expound upon Empire,
Witchcraft, the Civil War or Royal Mistresses or go to the cinema
and watch reconstructions of the Second World War, American Civil
War or Imperial China. Even current affairs reporting on
television, radio or in newspapers implicitly or explicitly
includes historical explanations. This book examines the boom in
history in television and film, newspapers and radio and the
constraints and opportunities it offers. Leading historians and
high profile broadcasters, such as Melvyn Bragg, Simon Schama,
Tristram Hunt, Ian Kershaw and David Puttnam, drawn on their
personal experiences to explore the problems and highlights of
representing history in the media.
