E-Books →Aspects of History Issue Two

Aspects of History is the new magazine and website dedicated to history and historical fiction.
Our second issue contains an exclusive interview with Robert Tombs, which addresses the history of Britain in and out of Europe.
The magazine also features pieces by Simon Sebag Montefiore, Ben Kane and Daisy Dunn.
We believe that history should be a source of argument and entertainment. Different voices have different stories to tell.
Each issue contains articles, interviews, short stories and book reviews by established and emerging writers.
The past isn't dead, it's not even past. History relates and resonates.
At the same time, the past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.
