Local history books, courses, events, information, news and resources - Local History Online

Welcome to Local History Online, one of the UK's premier sites for local history, with over 300 links to sites both in the UK and overseas, regularly updated News and Calendar sections, directories of local history organisations and course providers and an on-line Bookshop, with stock at discounted prices.

The Local History Bookshop

The Bookshop has been expanded, so now you can buy a selection of local history books and Historical Association pamphlets, as well as take out a subscription to Local History Magazine or buy all the back issues which are still in print. Payment by credit/debit card is completely secure. If you prefer to pay by cheque, or wish to place an official order, then please download our Booklist (5-page pdf file), which you will need Acrobat Reader to read (visit Adobe's website to download Reader for free).

The rest of the site shows you what you will find in the latest issue of Local History Magazine, advice about getting started in local history, as well as help if you want to publish a book.

Please have a wander around and let us know what you think of the site. Clicking on the main logo at any point will bring you back to the main page.

And finally, we pay tribute to our late, very lamented feline colleagues, The Local History Cats.
