The classic guide to exploring English local history, brought up to
date and expanded. This is a book for anyone wanting to explore
local history in England. It summarises, in an accessible and
authoritative way, current knowledge and approaches, bringing
together and illustrating the key sources and evidence, the skills
and tools, the contexts and interpretations for successive periods.
Case studies show these ingredients in use, combined to create
histories of people and place over time. A standard text since its
first edition in 1992, this new edition features extensive fresh
material, updated to reflect additional availability of evidence,
changing interpretations, new tools and skills (not least the use
of IT), and developments in the time periods and topics tackled by
local historians. The interdisciplinary character of
twenty-first-century local, family and community history is a
prominent feature. Complemented by 163 illustrations, this book
offers an unrivalled introduction to understanding and researching
local history.
