Great Stories from the Past
We believe the best way to appreciate history is through the telling of amazing stories about great people, famous events & notorious incidents from the past. We aim to deliver stories that are obscure, revealing as well as well-known. Some stories in history have become obscured by myth; here we aim to peel back the myth and expose what really happened.
The main history areas that we cover (although not exclusively) include military, politics (national as well as domestic) and media. From this wide and varied source we aim to create a constant flow of new material.
