Review :
'This valuable collection explores the resurgence of history in televisual form in the latter part of the 20th century...the chapters provide not only a range of evidence and analysis, but also some powerful areas of ongoing discussion for historians, broadcasters and producers.' -Justin Champion, Royal Holloway, University of London, Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television '...provides a good sense of the serious work being done on historical presentation across the Continent.' - Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly
