- how to help pupils understand political cartoons
- how to use pictures to explore interpretations of history

Key features:

- Clear explanation of flexible techniques that can be applied across the history curriculum
- Provocative analysis of the agenda facing history teaching in Key Stage 3 and GCSE
- Exploration of the relationship between visual literacy and historical knowledge and understanding
