Abstract

Two programs about the changing focus of local history and community writing in the 1990s. In the first program, Alistair Thomson, Bev Roberts and Cliff Smyth, three workers in the field discuss history and community writing and publishing in England and Australia. The second program discusses problems inherent in producing community histories and their importance to community understanding using the example of the work La Perouse, the place, the people and the sea. -- Broadcast as part of the ABC's Talking history program.
