This
book is not intended as an all-purpose textbook. However,
it is hoped that it will provide an accessible overview
and sound guide to the study of a range of historians
relevant to the NSW Extension History course for both
students and teachers. It is meant to bring together a
variety of information, resources and advice to support
the discussion, wide reading and research that takes place
in Extension History Classes.
