On the podcast this week... Sir Richard Evans on the real history behind 'The Zone of Interest', Benjamin Woolley on the mother-and-son duo who changed the face of the Jacobean court, Anna Reid on the bid to topple the Bolsheviks and Saul David on the evolution of the British Army.
“In invoking the verdict or judgment of history, politicians are, as so often, demonstrating their own ignorance and misunderstanding of how historians work.”
