In a new podcast for www.historyreclaimed.co.uk Historian Andrew Roberts tells us why he is a supporter of the website and why he wrote a recent paper for the Policy Exchange Think Tank on Churchill’s true legacy.

Podcast: In discussion with, Historian Andrew Roberts

We are an independent group of scholars from seven countries and several ethnicities with a wide range of opinions on many subjects, but with the shared conviction that history requires careful interpretation of complex evidence, and should not be a vehicle for facile propaganda.  We intend to provide context, explanation and balance in a debate in which condemnation is too often preferred to understanding.

We aim to inform and support individuals and institutions who feel uncertain in the face of the culture wars.  We have begun by bringing together on this website a wealth of writing on contested issues in history, and we will continue to produce a stream of new writing which will both set the agenda for historical debate, and call out fake history.
