This groundbreaking book by one of Britain's leading film historians is the first to take on this major genre in all its complexity. It takes to heart Ken Loach's view that the only reason to make films that are a reflection on history is to talk about the present. With this proposition as his starting point, James Chapman examines the place of historical films in British cinema history and film culture.
