À propos de l?auteur

Ian Mortimer graduated with a degree in History from the University of Exeter in 1989, then qualified as an archivist at UCL and worked in the Devon Record Office and the Public Record Office before taking up a post in the Department of History at Reading University. In 1994 he moved to the Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts, where he advised the public, mainly at postdoctoral level, about sources in British history, as well as lecturing to postgraduate students about source material and helping to maintain the National Register of Archives. In October 1999 he moved back to the University of Exeter, where he has been employed since, in a dual capacity as lecturer in primary sources for British history and as an archivist. He has lectured on a very wide range of historical themes, and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society in 1998.
