Bringing serious history to a wide audience since 1951. Published monthly, the magazine asks the world’s leading scholars to write informatively and engagingly on all periods, regions, and themes of history.
This is the 75th anniversary issue of the magazine launched by Winston Churchill in 1951 and initially criticised for it’s silver-spoon nature, now independently run and praised for its accessibility to in-depth global history.
Inside: 1960s San Francisco, remembered as the capital of gay liberation but also the birth of conversion therapy; The importance of Tito's communist Yugoslavia to Westminster; The 1708 wreck of the San José and the scientists who turned to history when the aurora borealis appeared in the skies of eighteenth-century Europe.
