Subject: RE: History and mythology of WW1
Jim,
As I said - his name appeared in the credits.
No it was not.

If I am mistaken, then it calls into question your claim of him being the leading authority on the war.
It does not.
He is among their "Ten leading WW1 historians" and has written extensively for their history site.

These were extremely well, no-expenses-spared, researched programmes by the BBC - it is inconceivable that they should overlook Britain's leading authority on the War.

No. They all agree on these things anyway.
The resources of The Open University" were more than adequate.

Whan will you gety it into your head that nobody gives a tuppenny **** about your claims of which historian said what.

If you were interested in the truth you would care about the findings of the historians.

If you are not prepared to back your claims with personal knowledge by responding to the points made,

I am and I have.

hiding behind unread historians is uninformative, unedifying and downright boring.

Normal, intelligent people learn their history from the history books.
You reject them in favour of discredited political dogma.
