Recenzii
'This is a stimulating book. It asserts the value of the discipline of history against its current enemies. Those, on the one hand, who would dissolve history into literature, a form of story-telling where fiction is as good as fact. And those, on the other hand, who understand history as the source for useful propaganda' - Arthur Aughey, The Making of Modern Irish History
'Between them they have compiled a really excellent and much needed study. The editors deserve particular congratulations.' - Charles Chenevix Trench, Irish Independent
