  • Uncovering the hidden histories: black and Asian people in the two world wars

      Teaching History Article
    The stories we tell in history are often stories about ourselves. This can lead to tremendous distortion. Rupert Gaze was shocked when a young black student told him that there was no point in his studying the Second World War because it had nothing to do with him or his...

  • Cunning Plan 137: making homework more exciting

      Teaching History journal feature
    Ever since I started teaching, homework has been something of a bugbear.

  • What did you do in The Great War? A family mystery explored

      Historian article
