History and Heritage by Simon Ditchfield

History offers us true stories about the past; heritage sells or provides us with the past we appear to desire. The dividing line between history and heritage is, however, far from clear. This collection addresses the division between history and heritage by looking at the ways in which we make use of the past, the way we consume our yesterdays.
..can be recommended as an ideal introduction for Building conservation practitioners to the broader issues and philosophies generated by the heritage at large. RICS Conservation Journal
