The Hard Grind of History, T. M. A. Graham , single work column

'Some novelists are attracted to historical fiction for the opportunity to write about queens and dukes and lords and ladies sashaying around grand

She talks to Tim Graham about turning historic sites into theme parks, how Shakespeare was her portal into history and her deep appreciation for how difficult life was for the average English person half a millennium ago.'
