I HAD not read History Today for many years until I recently spotted a copy at WH Smith in a new, eye-catching format.
Having caught my attention, a brief perusal of the contents turned me into a buyer again.
The latest issue, August 2017, has been out for at least a week - I bought it while playing at the Scottish chess championships in Dundee earlier this month.

| History Today...revised interest |
Nearly every article was of interest to me, even if at times there is a tendency to be overly revisionist. The cover, for example,
may be clever but the fact is that in any normal usage of the word, it was Columbus who "discovered" indigenous Americans, not the other way around.
